This is such an awesome recipe! I used green and red bell peppers for the relish, roasting them in the oven myself. The relish went together with the spice on the steaks perfectly, and the goat cheese got nice and melt-y and yummy!! We have never had anything quite like this on a steak and we both just loved it! The flavours really blended well, and it was a snap to throw together. Thanks for posting this Paula! Made for Aussie Swap

Fabulous!!! This is so simple to make and the end result is so flavoursome.. We all loved this one.. I followed the recipe exactly, apart from putting the relish inside large mushrooms and then placed the goats cheese on that and finally topped the steaks with it. I loved the spiced rub mix, it was such a great addition to the meat.. All the flavours came together so well in this dish and it was totally delicious and oh so moreish.. Thanks Paula
