Steak Dinner For One With Fish Sauce & Lime Butter

• 1 thin-cut boneless strip steak, 1/2-inch thick (about 7 to 8 ounces)
• 1 pinch salt and pepper
• 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil (or other oil with a high smoke point)
• 1 small handful green beans
• 1 lime (1/2 juiced, 1/2 wedged for serving)
• 1 teaspoon fish sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon dark brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon cold butter

1. Pat steak dry with paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet until smoking slightly, then add oil followed by the steak. Pressing down with tongs, cook for 2 minutes on the first side and 1 minute on the second side, or until medium-rare.
2. Plate the steak, then throw in green beans and toss in the fat, cooking for about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Plate the beans alongside the resting steak.
3. Take the pan off the heat, then add lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, and butter. Stir until the butter is incorporated. Pour the sauce all over the steak and beans and serve with the remaining lime wedges. Enjoy with a glass of red wine.
