- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned pepper
- 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

- Trim fat from steak. Make a paste from garlic spread, vegetable oil, salt and
seasoned pepper. Spread on both sides of steak.

Afterthoughts: For easy handling, place bag on cookie sheet during baking. Annette
advises, "You can bake steak early in the day, then bake at 425 degrees F just
before serving. The steak is out of this world."
