Beef up your Father's Day
This Father's Day, kick up your steak and potatoes. Our Mojito Flank Steak was inspired by the popular Cuban cocktail. Mint leaves, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, lime zest, and jalapeño peppers make for a flavourful marinade before grilling. Paired with a spicy sweet potato mash, it's a delicious twist on a classic dad favourite.
