Place the red onion rings on a baking sheet and then place the steaks on top. Transfer to the oven and cook for 3 to 4 minutes depending on thickness. Leave to rest before serving. - 2For the salad
Cut the root from the baby gems and then cut each lettuce in half lengthways. Separate the leaves and wash in cold water. Dry using a salad spinner. Slice the spring onions. De-seed and finely dice the chilli.
Place the spring onions and chilli in a bowl along with cider vinegar, picked thyme, a pinch of salt. Combine and then add the baby gem lettuce. Add the red onion rings and any resting juices from the steaks.
Carve the steaks and serve with a generous helping of the red onion and baby gem salad.
«Always rest your steak for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to spread and the meat to relax.»
