Outstanding! Made overseas with local veal tenderloin. Had no fresh tomatoes; substituted a (1/2) can of 'bio' tomatoes, added 1 clove garlic. Grilled eggplant, too, as side dish. Really easy, enjoyed by all.

Yum. And, so easy. Instead of firing up the grill for just the 2 of us, I cooked the steaks in a pan with a tiny bit of oil: 3 minutes on one side, 2 on the other. Otherwise, followed the recipe.
