Ingredients
Steak:
- 12 ounces Tri-Tip steak
- Sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 tablespoons unsalted butter
Greens:
- 5 cups leafy greens
- 1 ounce fresh grated parmesan
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Flaky sea salt
- Fresh cracked pepper
Romesco Sauce:
- 1 large roasted red pepper from a jar
- ¼ cup toasted slivered almonds
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Pat the steaks dry with a clean kitchen towel, season well with salt and pepper. Rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- While the steak is resting make the romesco sauce by placing all of the ingredients in a food processor and blending until very finely chopped. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Heat the oil in a 10.5” or larger cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking.
- Add the steaks to the pan and cook, flipping every minute or so until the internal temperature just about reaches 110°F for rare or 130°F for medium-rare or 145°F for medium.
- Add the butter and cook another minute or so until the temperature is reached. Remove the steaks from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- In a large bowl toss the greens with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Divide between two plates and top with the parmesan. Place a dollop of the romesco onto the plate and top with sliced steak, serve immediately.
