Chefs! All summer long, we're bringing you a mix of recipes designed for our favorite outdoor activity—grilling! For our take on beloved Italian panzanella (or bread salad), you’ll make croutons from crispy grilled baguette, then toss them with other classic ingredients like tomatoes and cucumbers to serve alongside herby grilled steaks.

Preheat your grill to maintain a temperature of 450-500°F. Carefully oil the grill grates. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the baguette. Halve the tomatoes. Quarter the cucumbers lengthwise; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Roughly chop the olives. In a large bowl, combine the halved tomatoes, cucumber pieces, chopped olives, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; stir to coat.
Drizzle the cut sides of the halved baguette with olive oil. Grill 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and toasted. Transfer to a cutting board; large dice. Transfer the croutons to the bowl of prepared vegetables.
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels; drizzle with olive oil and season on both sides with salt, pepper, and half the Italian seasoning. Grill 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until browned and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.* Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes.
*An instant-read thermometer should register 145°F.
While the steaks rest, to the bowl of vegetables and croutons, add the mayonnaise, cheese, and remaining Italian seasoning; stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Find the lines of muscle (or grain) on the rested steaks; slice crosswise against the grain. Serve the sliced steaks with the finished panzanella. Enjoy!
