Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb steak (such as sirloin or flank)
  • 1 large onion
  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • 2 stalks green onions
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the 1.5 lb steak dry with paper towels and season both sides with the 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook until browned and cooked to your liking, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate and let rest.

  3. 3

    Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the 1 large onion, sliced, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the 2 medium tomatoes, chopped, to the skillet and cook until they start to soften, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain. Return the sliced steak to the skillet with the onions and tomatoes, and toss to combine and warm through, about 1-2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Garnish with the 2 green onions, sliced, and serve hot.
