This one dish meal, served with a starch would make a dinner for one, or a light lunch for two. If Beef Chuck Boneless Eye Steak is not available, Sirloin would be my second choice.

Steps:
- Put green beans, sliced tomatoes, artichoke hearts, and garlic into a shallow pasta bowl.
- Cover both sides of the steak with the salt and pepper.
- Pour a small amount of the olive oil on the both sides of the steak, and pour the rest on the vegetables.
- Place the steak in a hot non-stick (I like Cast Iron) frying pan, and cook 3 1/2 minutes per side.
- Remove the steak and allow to rest for 3 minutes, then cut into bite size pieces.
- While the steak is resting, add the vermouth to the pan, scrape up the brown bits, and then add the vegetables.
- Stir the vegetables until warm, but stop before the tomato gets soft, and then return to the pasta bowl.
- Add the steak pieces to the vegetables and top with the feta cheese.
- I suggest serving with Solo Hot Potato Wedges, recipe#43782.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak: A flank steak, skirt steak, or hanger steak is a good choice for this recipe. These cuts are relatively inexpensive and have a lot of flavor.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
- Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender.
- Use fresh, seasonal vegetables: This will ensure that your salad is packed with flavor and nutrients.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Make your own dressing: A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs is a great way to dress this salad.
Conclusion:
This Mediterranean steak salad is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or potluck.
