Steak with Eggplant Pesto

submitted by butterflydog

1 good quality steak for pan frying to serve 2
1 medium eggplant
1 small onion chopped
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup home made or bottled basil pesto sauce
1 Tbsp fresh chopped cilantro
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
red wine ( Merlot ) to deglaze pan

Using leftovers, I came up with this very delicious company recipe Peel
eggplant, slice thin but not paper thin and then cube slices. Heat olive
oil in large skillet medium heat Add eggplant and cook and stir till egg
plant browns and starts to get soft Add onion and cook to soften onion Add
pesto sauce and stir well Add garlic and cook a minute or two Then push
mixture aside and add seasoned to taste, steak. Cook steak over medium
high heat to brown If veggies start to stick, add a few splashes of red
wine and scrape ands stir bottom of pan Turn steak over to finish cooking
( we like med rare ) Serve steak with eggplant pesto on the side
