Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds baby red-skinned potatoes
Kosher salt
1 cup fresh parsley
1 scallion, roughly chopped
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, smashed
Finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds flank steak
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes; drain.
  • Meanwhile, combine the parsley, scallion, jalapeno, garlic, lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mini food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and cook until browned, 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the potatoes to the same skillet; gently smash the potatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Top with the parsley sauce and serve with the potatoes.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still enjoy this dish. I just substitute tofu for the steak. The potatoes are also delicious on their own.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover flank steak. I made it with some steak that I had grilled the night before and it turned out great. The potatoes were also a nice addition.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steak turned out tough and dry. The potatoes were also bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.
