Ribeyes with Red Wine-Feta Vinaigrette
A good steak never needs something extra to make it stand out. However, sometimes I do have a craving for an extra twang to go with my meat.
We love ribeye steaks. I would say 90% of the steaks I buy are ribeyes; they just always grill to perfection. I guess I should thank my husband for that.
Anyway, yesterday I had a craving for something to go on top of my meat. I remembered seeing a recipe for a vinaigrette topping ribeyes. I searched my recipes until I found it, Ribeyes with Red Wine-Feta Vinaigrette. It was exactly what I was craving.
Vinaigrette on meat you say? Yes, a million times yes. The vinegar and feta cut through the richness of the steak perfectly, leaving you with this melt in your mouth experience. I loved it. I suspect this would also go well with grilled ahi tuna steaks or pork chops. If you add more oil it would also be perfect in a Greek salad.
Either way, it was a nice little addition to my already perfect steak. The trick is using a high quality oil and vinegar, you will taste the difference.
