Grilled Miso-Marinated Filet Mignon

I love it, when I find recipes that are dairy-free and easy. Cooking Light is one of my favorite sources for these.
This recipe is perfect for the summer months, because it combines grilling and adds a tasty light salad. What else could you want?

So, I start of with the salad and get all my pantry items together:
Then come the veggies. Snap peas….
…orange bell pepper….
…and spring onion:
Before i go any further though, I start on the marinate for the steaks:
Yummylicious:
OK, back to the Salad. Cook the rice noodles and add the snap peas at the end:
Drain and transfer to a bowl:
Add the orange bell pepper and spring onion:
Dress it all and set aside so those steaks can get grilled:)

Not much to do here, other than watching it get better and better:
And once you bring it all together it almost looks too beatifull to eat…almost.

Ginger-Soy Shrimp and Snap Peas

For some reason I can't find the recipe online, but I am sure Williams-Sonoma, where we bought our grill pan, won't mind me posting it here:)

Ingredients:
2 Tsp. finely minced fresh ginger (you can buy that in a jar at Whole Foods)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 Tsp. finely minced garlic
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes (if kids eat this, you may want to hold off on that)
8 oz. snap peas, trimmed
1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined (I bought frozen, uncooked and cleaned ones)
2 Tbs. thinly sliced green onions, green portions only
Steamed rice for serving

Here are the snap peas:

The shrimp, thawed:
Chopped green onions:
I didn't take pictures of making the sauce so here it goes:

In a small bowl, stir together the ginger, soy sauce, garlic, brown sugar and red pepper flakes and set aside:

Preheat a grill over high heat. Spray grill pan with cooking spray and place it in the grill for about 5 minutes to heat up.

Place the snap peas in the grill pan, cover the grill and cook, tossing the snap peas occasionally. Cook until they are just about tender, 6 minutes or so:
Meanwhile in a bowl, stir together the shrimp and half of the soy sauce mixture. When the snap peas are tender, add the shrimp and cover the grill. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are done:
Transfer the shrimp and snap peas to a large bowl, add the remaining soy sauce mixture and the green onions and stir to combine:
Serve immediately with steamed rice:
