Instructions
- STEP 1
Rub the garlic over the steaks then put in a sandwich bag and tip in the olive oil, sherry vinegar and parsley stalks.
- Smoosh everything together, then use a rolling pin to bash the steaks a few times.
- Leave for 1-2 hours.
- STEP 2
To make the sauce, put all the ingredients into a blender with 1 tbsp water and whizz until as smooth as possible.
- This will make more than you’ll need for the recipe but will keep for a week in an airtight jar.
- STEP 3
Heat a griddle or frying pan to high.
- Brush away the garlic and parsley stalks from the steaks and season well.
- Sear the steaks for 2 minutes on each side then rest on a plate.
- Put the ciabatta halves onto the plate, toasted-side down, to soak up any juices.
- STEP 4
Slice the steaks then stuff into the rolls with the green sauce and rocket.
