Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound small red-skinned potatoes
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 vine-ripened tomatoes
1 1/2 pounds flat-iron steaks (2 to 3 steaks)
10 pitted kalamata olives
1/2 cup fresh parsley
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon finely grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Put the potatoes on a microwave-safe plate and microwave, turning the potatoes halfway through, until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, thyme, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 2 tablespoons water.
  • Slice the potatoes and tomatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Gently toss together in a bowl with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Place in overlapping layers on top of the onion (it doesn't have to be neat). Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the potatoes are soft and the tomatoes are wrinkled and dry, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a cutting board and let rest, 5 minutes.
  • Finely chop the olives and parsley; toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the vinegar, orange zest and a pinch of salt. Slice the steak against the grain and divide among plates; top with the olive-parsley relish and serve with the roasted vegetables.

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons zaatar
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Four 6-ounce hanger steaks
1 1/2 pounds baby red potatoes
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon white miso
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon drained capers
2 cups medium diced heirloom or vine ripe tomatoes
1 cup sliced Persian cucumber
1/4 cup mixed olives, sliced in half
1 cup crumbled feta

Steps:

  • Combine zaatar, oregano, cumin and a generous pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil until a thick paste forms. Rub the steaks with the spice mixture and let sit at room temperature for 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Season water generously with salt and bring to a low boil over medium heat. Let cook until the potatoes are slightly tender but not cooked through entirely, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain, and once cool enough to handle, thread 4 or 5 potatoes on each of 5 metal skewers.
  • Whisk together white wine vinegar, miso and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Add parsley, dill and capers. Add tomatoes, cucumber and olives and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and set aside.
  • Preheat the grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the steaks to desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium. Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Meanwhile, drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over potatoes and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Grill until skin is crispy and potatoes are cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Slice steaks 1 1/2-inch thick and top with salad. Sprinkle with feta and serve with grilled potatoes.
