INSTRUCTIONS
Combine first 10 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Seal and
marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes. Remove steaks and vegetables from
bag, reserving marinade. Place reserved marinade in a small saucepan;
bring to a boil. Cook until reduced to 3 tablespoons (about 2
minutes.). Place grill pan coated with cooking spray over medium-high
heat until hot. Add shallots and bell peppers; cook 3 minutes on each
side or until crisp-tender. Chop shallots and bell peppers; place in a
small bowl. Stir in reduced marinade; set aside. Press 1 teaspoon
coarsely ground pepper onto 1 side of each steak. Wipe pan clean with
paper towels; re-coat with cooking spray. Place pan over medium-high
heat until hot. Add steaks, peppered sides down; cook 3 minutes on
each side or until desired degree of doneness. Add bell pepper salsa;
cook until thoroughly heated. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.

A Message from our Provider:
“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
