Flat Iron Steak with Salsa Verde

(from artmem’s recipe box)

Flat Iron Steak is a fantastic cut of meat to have on hand for a quick, midweek supper. Besides lending itself to a speedy preparation (it only requires a few minutes in the skillet and a few more to rest), it is full of juicy flavor due to its characteristic marbling. Here I pair it with salsa verde and, because it’s still so wonderfully possible, fresh sliced garden tomatoes on the side.
Tip: My Trader Joe’s carries flat iron steak in 8 oz packages, which is just perfect for two light meat eaters.
