The weather in Albany has finally started to change for the better....we think, lol. There is no better time than the present to get re-acquainted with your grill! That's right! Step outside and introduce yourself again with some New York strip steak! Here is an easy recipe from chef Rob that is not only simple, but will have your taste buds singing!
Bistecca Alla Florentine
This is a traditional steak recipe. The new york strip is seasoned lightly with salt, pepper and a little lemon. Serve it up with garlic mashed potatoes and you will have a great meal!
2 boneless new york strip steaks 1 inch thick
2 lemons
2 TBS olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Pour the juice of the lemon in a shallow baking dish. Cut the other lemon into 8 wedges. Place steaks in dish and coat on both sides. Preheat grill to high. Grill steaks to desired doneness, (about 7-8 minutes per side for medium rare).
Remove from grill and let rest for 2 minutes, then slice across the grain into strips about 1/2 inch thick. Place on a serving platter and drizzle with olive oil and the juice from two of the lemon wedges. Salt and pepper and serve with a lemon wedge.

The BLGS Foundation supports initiatives to improve clinical care for patients and to advance the education and training of medical care professionals so that they can properly diagnose and treat those affected by metabolic and mitochondrial disease.
The tremendous support at the 1st and 2ndAnnual Gala of Angels benefit in honor of the BLGS Foundation has raised over $150,000 in critical research dollars. These funds have enabled Dr. Mark S. Korson, Chief of Metabolic Service for TuftsMedicalCenter to travel to various medical centers each month to launch the Metabolic Outreach Service. This comprehensive medical education program is designed to expand education and training opportunities for physicians, medical students and other medical care professionals about metabolic and mitochondrial disease and patient care. This program currently serves SIX Medical Centers without a Metabolism Service in New England and New York.
