Instructions

Prep the ingredients
1

Remove the steak from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature. Halve, peel, and dice the onion. Cut the zucchini into ½ –inch cubes. Trim the bottom inch of the asparagus, then cut into 1-inch pieces on a diagonal. Mince the chives and mint leaves. Zest and halve the lemon.

Make the mint-chive pesto
2

In a small bowl, combine the mint, chives, a large drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, to taste.

3

Start the succotash: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes, until softened. Add the zucchini to the pan and cook, tossing for 5-6 minutes, until golden brown and softened. Season with salt and pepper. Set the pan aside off the heat –we’ll come back to it later!

Sear the steak
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Pat dry the steak with a paper towel, then season on all sides with salt and pepper. Add the steak to the pan and cook for 4-7 minutes per side, until cooked to desired doneness. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.

Finish the succotash
5

While the steak rests, add the peas and asparagus to the pan with the zucchini. Place over medium-high heat and cook, tossing for 4-5 minutes, until the asparagus is crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of lemon zest.

6

Finish and plate: Thinly slice the steak against the grain and serve on a bed of spring veggie succotash. Drizzle with the mint chive pesto and enjoy!
