Serves 2-3
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh rosemary leaves 6 whole fresh sage leaves 1 porterhouse steak, about 2 inches thick (13/4 pounds) Fleur de Sel and freshly cracked Five Peppercorn Mix 1/2 cup Planeta Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Prepare the grill for high-heat direct grilling.
Scatter the rosemary and sage over the bottom of a deep dish just large enough to hold the steak. Set aside. Generously season the steak with Five Pepper Mix. Place the steak on the hot grate at a 45-degree angle to the grill bars (for nice grill marks). Grill until cooked to taste, rotating the steak after 3 to 4 minutes to create cross-hatched grill marks.
When the steak is done, lay it on top of the herbs in the prepared dish. Pour the oil over top. Turn steak a few times to coat with the herbs and oil. Spoon the oil that pools in the dish over the steak. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes.
Carve and serve. Spoon herbed oil and juices over top. Sprinkle with Fleur de Sel.
