Categories: Meals

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup golden raisins
  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • 1 tbsp. drained capers
  • 2 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • 1 1/2 lb. hanger steak
  • 6 cups cauliflower florets
  • Fresh parsley leaves, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400.

  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. oil over medium. Add the onions; cook, stirring often, until golden, 10-12 minutes. Add the raisins, vinegar, sugar, and capers; season with salt and pepper. Simmer until the liquid is syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes; cook until softened, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the agrodolce to a bowl.

  3. Season the steak. In the same skillet, heat 1 tbsp. oil over medium-high heat. Add the steak; cook, turning once, until browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Add the remaining 2 tbsp. oil to the skillet. Add the cauliflower; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 6-7 minutes. Season with salt. Remove from heat.

  5. Move the cauliflower to the sides of the skillet. Place the steak in the center. Transfer to the oven. Roast until the cauliflower is crisp-tender and cooked to your liking, 9-10 minutes.

  6. Transfer the steak to a cutting board; let rest for 5 minutes. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Top with the agrodolce. Serve with the cauliflower. Garnish with parsley.
