Steak With Golden Zucchini

Hey everyone!  I hope everyone is having a great day :) For those in college, we have about a week left of break so let's have some fun!


Here's a new recipe I gathered and some Lupe Fiasco to hang out!

This dinner meal Serves 4| Hands-On Time: 25m | Total Time: 25m

Ingredients

• 6 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 1/2 pounds strip steak
• kosher salt and pepper
• 1 1/2 pounds small zucchini, halved lengthwise
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• 1 small clove garlic, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, cilantro, or basil)
• 2 tablespoons bread crumbs

Directions

1. Heat 3 teaspoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
2. Cook the steak to desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
3. Meanwhile, return the pan to medium heat and add 2 teaspoons of the oil. Season the zucchini with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
4. Cook the zucchini, cut-side down, covered, until browned and tender, about 6 minutes. Cut crosswise into ½-inch pieces and divide among plates.
5. In a bowl, combine the lemon zest, garlic, herbs, bread crumbs, and remaining oil. Sprinkle the mixture over the zucchini and serve with the steak.
