This vibrant flank steak with Bloody Mary tomato salad is a sophisticated way to enjoy a lean cut of beef. The steaks are rubbed with a smoky, spiced sugar crust before being grilled to perfection, resulting in a beautifully caramelised finish. Paired with a punchy salad inspired by the classic brunch cocktail, the dish offers a refreshing balance of acidity and spice that cuts through the rich savoury notes of the meat.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on high-quality protein and fresh vegetables rather than heavy starches. The combination of juicy cherry tomatoes, crunchy celery hearts and a piquant horseradish dressing makes it an excellent choice for a healthy weekend lunch or a light alfresco dinner. Serve it sliced thinly across the grain to ensure every bite is tender and flavourful.
