Sliced steak with roasted broccoli, carrots, and rice.

Serves 2

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless New York strip steak, about 12 ounces and 1 inch thick
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into ½-inch pieces
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli and carrots with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the thyme, salt, and pepper.
  2. Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet. Roast for 20–25 minutes, turning halfway through, until tender and browned.
  3. Pat the steak dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Sear the steak for about 3–4 minutes per side. Reduce the heat if needed and continue cooking until a food thermometer reads at least 145°F in the thickest part.
  5. Transfer to a clean board and rest for at least 3 minutes before slicing across the grain.
  6. Warm the cooked rice and serve with the steak and roasted vegetables.
