This juicy, mouth-watering, grilled Greek Seasoned Porterhouse Steak with Cucumber and Tomato Salad was adapted from the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association recipe on AllRecipes.com. It was so juicy and flavorful that there were no leftovers after this meal.
When my husband’s doctor told him that he should cut down on carbs, hubby was bummed. However, he was very happy to learn that beef can fit into a healthy, balanced diet. It is one of the proteins included in the USDA MyPlate nutrition guide and has several essential nutrients, as listed in Beef! It’s What’s For Dinner!!
I made my own Greek seasoning because it is so easy to do, and I can make it just how I like it while saving money. In addition, I can control the amount of salt. I mixed the Greek seasoning, lemon juice, and lemon peel with about two tablespoons of olive oil and brushed it on the steak before grilling.
Before serving, sprinkle the steaks with feta or blue cheese. Serve with the cucumber tomato salad on the side.
