Grilled Lime-Curry-Rubbed Hanger Steak with Fresh Melon-Cucumber Chutney

This aromatic lime and curry-rubbed hanger steak offers a sophisticated balance of heat and zest, making it a standout choice for a healthy mid-week meal. The deep, earthy notes of the curry powder rub are beautifully offset by a bright, cooling chutney made from honeydew melon and crisp cucumber. Using hanger steak, known for its rich flavour and tender texture, ensures a satisfying main course that feels indulgent while remaining light and fresh.

As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this dish focuses on lean protein and vibrant, whole-food ingredients rather than heavy sauces. The natural sweetness of the melon provides a refreshing contrast to the spicy jalapeño and lime juice without the need for added sugars. Serve it alongside a small portion of fragrant basmati or jasmine rice for a complete, nutritionally balanced dinner.
