4 teaspoons garlic-pepper seasoning, divided
4 boneless beef top loin (strip) steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 8 oz. each)
2 medium red onions, each cut into 12 wedges

In a small pan, bring vinegar to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 6 to 8 minutes, or until reduced by half. Set aside.

Grill squash and zucchini 8 to 12 minutes, and onions 12 to 15 minutes, or until tender, turning occasionally.

Remove onions from skewers; toss half of the onions with 2 tablespoons of boiled vinegar, oregano and salt, as desired. Carve 2 steaks into slices. Serve with onion mixture and half of the squash and zucchini; season with salt, as desired. Yields 4 servings.

Cover and refrigerate leftover steaks, onions, squash, zucchini and boiled vinegar.Editor's note: To prepare on a gas grill, preheat grill according to manufacturer's directions for medium heat. Grill steaks, covered, 11 to 15 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.
