For the steak
- 1 1⁄2 lbs flank steaks
- 1⁄3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon herbes de provence
- kosher salt
- fresh ground black pepper
-
For the relish
- 3 ripe tomatoes
- 1 bunch scallion, trimmed
- 8 whole garlic cloves, unpeeled
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, you can use red wine vinegar as well
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- toasted crusty bread, for serving
directions
- Position broiler pan on rack closest to the broiler and preheat to high. Rub steak lightly with some of the oil and sprinkle with the herbs de Provence and salt and pepper to taste.
- Put the whole tomatoes, scallions, and garlic in a large bowl, drizzle with about 1 tablespoons of the olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Turn the vegetables until they are lightly coated.
- Carefully lay the steak in the center of the hot pan, arrange the vegetables around it, and broil until the steak is brown but still tender to the touch and the vegetables are charred, 5-6 minutes.
- Turn the steak and veggies and broil another 5-6 minutes, until the steak is medium rare (instant read thermometer 130 degrees F.) and the veggies are charred.
- Transfer the steak and veggies to a cutting board.
- Core the tomatoes, squeeze the garlic cloves from their skins and chop them both with the scallions to make a chunky relish.
- Transfer the veggies and all their juices to a bowl and stir in the remaining 1/4 cup or so of the olive oil, the vinegar and the Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Slice the meat against the grain and on an angle, transfer to a plate or platter, and serve with the relish on toasted bread.

<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
