 🥩 Grilled Montreal steak
 Ingredients (for 2 servings):

 
 2 beef steaks (ribeye, entrecôte or rump steak, each ~250–300 g)
 
 2 teaspoons Montreal spice blend
 
 1 tablespoon olive oil

 Preparation:

 
 Prepare the meat: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.
 
 Marinate: Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil and sprinkle with Montreal mixture. Leave for ~15–30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
 
 Baking:
  

   
 Grill: Cook on a hot grill for ~3–5 minutes on each side, depending on desired doneness.
   
 On a pan: Cook on a heated cast iron or grill pan until the meat is browned and the inside is done to your preference (rare/medium/well done).
  
 
 Resting: After cooking, let the steaks rest for 5–7 minutes, covered with foil – so that the juices distribute evenly.
 
 Serve: With grilled vegetables, baked potatoes, or a side of crunchy salad.
