Grilled Porterhouse Steaks with Olive and Caper Spread
- 1 cup green olives (such as Picholine or Calabrese), pitted
- 1 cup black olives (such as Nicoise or Kalamata), pitted
- 1 tablespoon drained bottled capers
- two 2-inch-thick porterhouse steaks
- olive oil for brushing the steaks
- parsley sprigs for garnish if desired
- In a food processor chop coarse the olives and the capers.
- The olive and caper spread may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels, brush them with the oil, and season them with salt and pepper.
- Grill the steaks on a rack set 4 inches over glowing coals for 10 minutes on each side for rare to medium-rare meat.
- (Alternatively, the steaks may be broiled on the rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 10 minutes on each side.)
- Let the steaks stand, covered loosely with foil, for 8 minutes.
- Serve the steaks, sliced, with the olive and caper spread garnished with the parsley.
