Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef top round steak, cut 1-inch thick
  • 1/4 cup prepared lowfat vinaigrette
  • 2 cups fresh sugar snap peas
  • 2 cups cooked barley
  • 1 cup yellow and red grape or teardrop tomatoes, halved
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

    Gremolata Dressing:
  • 1/4 cup prepared lowfat vinaigrette
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel

Preparation:
  1. Combine Gremolata Dressing ingredients in small bowl until well blended, refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Place beef steak and 1/4 cup vinaigrette in food-safe plastic bag; turn steak to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.
  3. Bring water to boil in large saucepan. Add peas; cook 2 to 3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain; rinse under cold water. Combine peas, cooked barley and tomatoes in large bowl; toss with dressing and set aside.
