Pan-Seared Ranch Steak with Creamy Peppercorn Sauce, Roasted Broccoli and Garlic Ciabatta
A simple steak dinner with a bold crushed-peppercorn sauce, roasted broccoli, and warm garlic ciabatta on the side.
Ciabatta is an Italian-style white bread known for its crisp crust, chewy interior, and open, airy crumb. Its mild flavor and sturdy texture make it especially useful in recipes where bread needs to soak up sauces, oils, juices, or melted cheese without falling apart. Use ciabatta for panini, steak sandwiches, chicken pesto melts, bruschetta, garlic bread, breakfast strata, and panzanella salad. Day-old ciabatta is excellent for homemade croutons, bread crumbs, stuffing, and ribollita-style soups. For the best texture, toast or grill ciabatta before layering with moist ingredients like tomatoes, roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella, or saucy meats. The heat revives the crust and adds flavor while helping the bread hold up in finished dishes.
