Instructions
- Step 1: Remove 4 kangaroo steaks from the refrigerator and pat dry. Season both sides evenly with 1 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Step 3: Add kangaroo steaks to the hot pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, flipping once. They should develop a dark crust but remain pink inside.
- Step 4: Remove steaks from the skillet and let rest on a warm plate for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Step 5: Serve each steak topped with 1/4 cup bush tomato chutney and garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley for a bright finish.
