Directions

  1. Prepare barbecue or heat up cast iron pan over high heat.
  2. Whisk first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Pull out some of inside of bread, forming thick shells.
  4. Brush corn, peppers, onion, cut sides of bread, and steaks with olive oil.

  6. Let steaks rest 5 minutes. Grill bread, cut side down, until charred, about 2 to 3 minutes.
