Beef Steak Dippables

Yields2 Servings

This recipe is a bit like a summer version of fondue -- serving steak like this as a nibbler is a great way to make it stretch! Steak can be grilled ahead, cutting into cubes when you're ready to serve. NOTE: Canadiana and Bombay Dips also work well as a marinade for Beef Kabobs.
