Flank Steak with Melon Relish

This vibrant flank steak with melon relish offers a refreshing twist on a classic beef dish. By pairing lean, pan-seared steak with a bright salsa of juicy cantaloupe, red onion and fresh herbs, you create a sophisticated balance of savoury and sweet notes. The use of fresh mint and white balsamic vinegar provides a zesty finish that lifts the richness of the meat without the need for heavy sauces.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on high-quality protein and fresh, whole-food ingredients. It is naturally low in saturated fat and packed with vitamins from the fresh fruit and herbs, making it an excellent choice for a healthy mid-week meal or a light weekend lunch. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal vegetables for a complete, nutritionally balanced plate.
