Seal with an elastic band as close to meat as possible. Marinate at room temperature about 20 min. Meanwhile, prepare cucumber and capers. Place in a small bowl. Stir in bruschetta topping.

  • When ready to broil steak, place oven rack 3 in. (7.5 cm) from broiler element. Preheat broiler. Remove steak from marinade. Set on a rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Discard marinade. Broil 3 to 4 min per side for medium-rare or until meat springs back when gently pressed. Let rest 5 min. Slice in half and top with bruschetta mixture. Excellent with our Tzatziki Greek Potatoes.

A bright salsa adds a dressed-up touch to any steak, even an inexpensive one. Keep a jar of store-bought bruschetta topping in the refrigerator to use as a base and you're ready to go. Just remember to bring the meat to room temperature before broiling.
