Steak Nicoise Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of the oil with the garlic, rosemary, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place the steak in a zip-top bag, add the marinade and rub the flank steak all over. Let stand for 30 minutes at room temperature to marinate and to allow the steak to come to room temperature.
• While the steak marinates, place the potatoes in a medium pot, add a generous pinch of salt and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 15 minutes. Add the green beans to the water in the last 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Preheat the grill over medium heat. In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar with the mustard, shallots, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste until smooth. Whisk in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Grill the steak, flipping once, until the internal temperature reads about 130 degrees F, 7 to 8 minutes per side. Let rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes, and then thinly slice across the grain.
• To serve, toss the baby spinach with 2 tablespoons of the dressing and divide among 4 plates. Evenly top with the potatoes, green beans, olives, tomatoes and sliced steak. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the top and lightly season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Generously season the beef with salt and pepper. Place beef in a roasting pan, and rub it with vegetable oil. Roast for 30 minutes, then reduce heat to 325 degrees. Roast until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees (for rare) or 140 degrees (for medium rare), about 30 to 50 minutes depending on thickness of roast. While beef roasts, prepare vegetables.
• Bring a pan of salted water to a boil, and add potatoes. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain, allow to cool slightly, and cut into 1/4-inch dice. Place in a bowl, and toss with a small amount of olive oil. Season with salt to taste, and set aside.
• Bring another pan of salted water to a boil, and add green beans. Cook until bright green and barely tender. Drain immediately, and plunge into a bowl of cold water, then drain again. Set aside.
• Bring a pan of water to a boil, and remove from heat. Add tomatoes, and allow to sit for several minutes, until skins split. Remove tomatoes with a slotted spoon. Peel and halve them, discarding seeds. Cut tomato pulp into 1/4-inch dice, and sprinkle with a little salt and sugar. Set aside.
• When beef is cooked to taste, remove from oven, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Allow to rest for a few minutes, then carve into thin slices, reserving any juices. Arrange on a platter, and drizzle with juices. Toss beans and diced potatoes together, and scatter around beef. Scatter tomato dice over beef, and sprinkle with olives. Strew with basil leaves, and serve.

Steps:

• Boil the eggs in a pan of simmering water for 6 mins, then drain and set aside in a bowl of cold water. Boil the green beans for 3 mins and drain.
• Whisk together the oil, mustard and vinegar. Tip the mixed beans into a bowl and stir through the green beans, dressing, parsley and olives. Toss through the rocket.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Fry the steak for 2-3 mins on each side. Remove from the heat, set aside to rest for 5 mins, then slice into thin strips. Toss with the bean mix.
• Pile the onto two plates. Gently peel and halve the eggs. Top the beans with the eggs, parmesan and a grinding of black pepper. Serve with the sourdough.

Steps:

• Directions 1. Mist a broiler pan with cooking spray. Coat both sides of the steak with the salt and black pepper and place on pan. Broil 5 to 6 minutes per side or until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and let sit 5 to 10 minutes; cut across the grain into thin strips. 2. Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, and mustard in a small bowl. 3. Place the potatoes in a pot with enough cold water to cover by 2 inches; bring to a boil. Boil until tender, about 10 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon and gently toss with 2 teaspoons dressing. 4. Add the green beans to the water; cook until bright green and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water. 5. Arrange the steak, green beans, potatoes, tomatoes, and olives on a platter. Drizzle remaining dressing over the top and serve.
