Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen Peppery arugula, tender steak, and crispy potatoes complete each other perfectly in this salad, topped with a mild lemon vinaigrette.

Ingredients

  • 3 shallots
  • 6 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lb. Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 1/2 lb. skirt steak
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 1 lemon
  • 1/2 c. finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tbsp. chopped capers
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 bunch arugula

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice 2 shallots. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add the sliced shallots and cook, turning the potatoes occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender, 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer the vegetables to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  2. Heat broiler. Season the steak with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and place on a broiler-proof baking sheet. Broil to desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
  3. While the steak cooks, make the dressing: Finely chop the remaining shallot and place in a medium bowl. Finely grate 2 teaspoons lemon zest into the bowl, then squeeze in 2 tablespoons of juice. Stir in the parsley, capers, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoon oil. Arrange the arugula, steak, and vegetables on a platter. Drizzle with the dressing.
