    Ingredients
    4 x 150g sirloin steaks
    olive oil spray
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
    1 lemon, cut into 4 wedges
    Artichoke and pea salsa
    100g fresh peas
    280g can artichokes in brine, drained, roughly chopped
    1/4 red onion, finely diced
    2 teaspoons baby capers, rinsed, drained
    250g cherry tomatoes, diced
    2 anchovy fillets (9g), drained, chopped
    1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
Step 1 Make Artichoke and pea salsa: Blanch the peas in a saucepan of boiling water; cool in iced water. Drain and place in a bowl. Add artichoke, onion, capers, tomatoes, anchovy and parsley. Combine well. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.

Step 2 Preheat the barbecue. Lightly spray steaks with oil and sprinkle with rosemary. Press in with your hands. Cook steaks on barbecue for 4–5 minutes on each side. Turn only once with tongs (being careful not to puncture with fork or knife).

Step 3 Remove from barbecue and place on a warm plate. Lightly cover with foil and a clean tea towel. Rest for 5 minutes. Serve steak with salsa and lemon wedges.
