Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Brush 4 kangaroo steaks with 2 tbsp olive oil and season both sides with 1 tsp sea salt and 1/2 tsp ground black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Arrange the steaks evenly on the sheet pan. Scatter 1 small sliced red onion and 3 minced garlic cloves around the steaks. Drizzle remaining 1 tbsp olive oil over onions and garlic.
  3. Step 3: Sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary over the entire pan. Roast in oven for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, turning steaks halfway through cooking.
  4. Step 4: Remove the sheet pan from oven and let steaks rest for 5 minutes. Serve each steak topped with 2 tbsp bush tomato chutney for a vibrant, tangy contrast.
