Ingredients
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) whole-grain mustard
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 1 tsp steak spice
- 1 lb (450 g) beef top sirloin steak, 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) thick
- 6 shallots, cut into rounds 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) honey
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp butter, diced
- 3/4 lb (340 g) green beans, trimmed and blanched
- 2 tbsp roasted pumpkin seeds
- 1 tbsp tarragon, finely chopped
- Fleur de sel, to taste
- 1 oz (30 g) sharp cheddar cheese shavings (see note)
Instructions
- Preheat the grill, setting the burners to high. Oil the grate.
- In a small bowl, combine the mustard, oil and steak spice.
- On a plate, using a pastry brush, cover the steak with the mustard mixture on both sides. Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the shallots, honey and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Place the shallot mixture and butter on a large piece of foil. Tightly seal into a packet (papillote).
- Place the shallot papillote directly on the grill and cook for 10 minutes or until the shallots are tender. Open the foil and return the shallots to the bowl. Add the green beans, pumpkin seeds and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Meanwhile, grill the steak for 2 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until the desired doneness. Let rest on a plate for 5 minutes.
- On a work surface, slice the meat and sprinkle with fleur de sel. Divide the steak and green beans among four plates. Top with the cheese shavings.
