Lunch: Rosemary Grilled Steak with Tomato Jam

Recipe by Maureen Callahan Fresh rosemary brings pleasant pine notes to grilled beef. If you don't have time to make the jam, use bottled tomato chutney instead. Extra rosemary sprigs make a lovely garnish.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon canola oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
1 teaspoon minced garlic, divided
3/4 cup finely chopped tomato
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
