Soy and Maple Scotch Fillet with Grilled Corn and Tomato Salad

Serves: 4

Ingredients

4 scotch fillet steaks
2 small cobs of corn, husks removed
12 cherry tomatoes

¼ red onion, thinly sliced
2 tsp balsamic vinegar

Marinade

¼ cup maple syrup
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

10. Slice each steak into thin strips and place onto each plate along with the salad. Drizzle any remaining juices over the steak and serve immediately.

Tips

 Always rest beef after cooking. This gives the meat juices a chance to redistribute, giving a more moist and tender result
