Submitted by: John Beeler
"I told my dear friend and colleague Cathy Whims, co-owner of Portland's renowned restaurant Nostrana, that I was “stealing her recipe” after I ate this dish at her restaurant. The simplicity of the preparation was obvious, yet the overlay of flavors was complex and memorable, It's a winner! Grill an extra flank steak and reserve it for making Grilled Flank Steak Salad withGrilled New Potatoes and Chimichurri on another night."
