Nightshade Free Gluten Free Bistecca alla Fiorentina

Few dishes command a dinner table quite like a thick, bone-in steak seared to a deep mahogany crust and finished with a drizzle of good olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. This Florentine-style preparation is beautifully stripped back — just a quality porterhouse or T-bone, kosher salt, black pepper, fresh rosemary, and olive oil — which means it's naturally free of tomatoes, peppers, and the other nightshade ingredients that can quietly sneak into marinades and sauces. The simplicity is the whole point, and it works spectacularly. Bringing the steak to room temperature before it hits a screaming-hot cast iron grill pan is the key to that even, restaurant-quality sear without overcooking the interior. Resting the meat under the rosemary sprigs lets the herbal aroma perfume every slice before you even pick up a knife. Sliced against the grain and fanned out on a platter with lemon wedges and optional flaky sea salt, this is the kind of centerpiece that makes a weeknight feel like a celebration — or a dinner party feel effortless.
