Sirloin Steak with Shaved Fennel and Patty Pan Squash Salad

20 Mins

1 Sirloin Steak, thawed
1 Fennel bulb
2 Patty Pan Squashes
½ cup Parsley leaves with tender stems
1 Garlic clove, finely grated
1 tsp finely grated Lemon Zest
¼ cup fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 tsp Sugar
⅓ tsp Red Pepper Flakes
⅓ cup Olive Oil
Sea Salt

Using a mandoline or sharp chef’s knife, thinly shave the fennel and patty pan squash.

Whisk together garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, sugar, red pepper, ⅓ cup oil, and 1 teaspoon sea salt in a small bowl until salt and sugar dissolve.

Toss fennel, patty pan squash and parsley with dressing; set aside.

Season steak with sea salt. Coat a skillet with a bit of cooking oil and put over high heat. Add the steak and cook for 3-5 minutes per side until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Set the steak on a cutting board to rest. Slice the steak against the grain into ¼-inch slices. Divide the steak between two plates and top with the salad.
