Ingredients

Scale
  • to 2 pounds flank or sirloin steak
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into rounds
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 yellow onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice.
  2. Place the steak in the bowl and turn to coat thoroughly. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for better flavor).
  3. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss zucchini, bell pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  4. Roast vegetables for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
  5. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 450°F / 230°C). Clean and oil the grates.
  6. Remove steak from marinade, letting excess drip off. Grill steak 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare (internal temp 130-135°F).
  7. Let steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  8. Serve sliced steak alongside roasted vegetables, drizzling any resting juices over the top.

Notes

Marinate steak for at least 30 minutes to tenderize and enhance flavor. Rest steak after grilling to keep it juicy. Use tongs to flip steak to avoid piercing and losing juices. Roast vegetables at high heat for caramelization and stir halfway through to prevent burning. For gluten-free, substitute soy sauce with tamari.
