Balsamic Marinaded Sirloin And Asparagus

In a small bowl, combine vinegar, oil, basil, mustard, garlic and sugar to make marinade. Place steak and 1/3-cup of the marinade in a sealable plastic bag. Close bag securely, turn to coat steak and marinate in refrigerator 15 minutes to 2 hours, turning occasionally. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.

Meanwhile, bring 1-inch of water to a boil in a large skillet. Add the asparagus and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook 2-3 minutes or until asparagus is just crisp-tender. Drain asparagus and combine with the reserved marinade,tossing to coat.

Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place steak on grid over medium, ash-covered coals.

Grill uncovered for 17-21 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally. During the last 3 minutes of grilling, arrange asparagus on grid around the steak. Grill 3 minutes, turning once. Season steak and asparagus with the salt and pepper.

Carve steak crosswise into slices and serve with the asparagus.
