Skirt Steak With Peppers
- 1 pound baby red-skinned potatoes, halved
- Kosher salt
- 1 1/4 pounds skirt steak
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 bell peppers (any color), thinly sliced
- 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Juice of 1/2 lemon, plus wedges for serving
- Put the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water by about 1 inch; add salt.
- Bring to a simmer and cook until fork-tender, about 8 minutes, then drain.
- Meanwhile, cut the steak crosswise into 8 pieces and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- When hot, add the steak (in batches, if necessary) and cook until medium rare, 1 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness.
- Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil.
- Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium and add the bell peppers, onion, garlic, a splash of water and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly soft, about 5 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
- Increase the heat to medium high, add 3/4 cup water and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 4 more minutes.
- Stir in the potatoes, parsley and lemon juice.
- Divide the steak among plates and serve with the vegetables and lemon wedges.
