Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine wine, garlic, rosemary and 4 Tbsp (60 mL) olive oil. Add steaks, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for two to three hours.
- Remove steaks from marinade, season with pepper and allow to come to room temperature.
- Heat grill to medium. Cook tomato halves and fennel until slightly blackened. Turn and cook for a few minutes more, then roughly chop.
- In a medium bowl, combine tomato and fennel with parsley, chives, vinegar, remaining 2 Tbsp (30 mL) olive oil, plus salt and pepper.
