Grilled Grass-Fed Rib-Eye Steaks with Balsamic-Caper VinaigretteAntonis Achilleos

When it comes to steak, Americans are learning that less meat can be more: more eco-friendly, more healthful, and more delicious. Instead of that huge T-bone or porterhouse, try a smaller rib-eye steak—and make sure it's grass-fed. Grass-fed beef is lower in fat and calories than conventionally raised beef and contains omega-3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs), which may boost the immune system and help lower the risk of cancer and heart disease. Keep the goodness going by skipping that pat of blue-cheese butter and drizzling the meat with a simple vinaigrette.
Grass-fed beef is very lean and is best served rare or medium-rare.
