Grillade Flatiron-biffar med tomater och tapenade

This Mediterranean-inspired grilled flat iron steak is a vibrant choice for anyone seeking a diabetes-friendly main course that doesn't compromise on bold flavours. The beef is marinated in citrus, smoked paprika, and oregano, then grilled until perfectly charred and juicy. Served alongside a fresh tomato salad and peppery watercress, the dish is finished with a salty, homemade olive tapenade that brings a sophisticated depth to the plate.

Rich in protein and healthy fats from the olives and olive oil, this meal is as nourishing as it is delicious. It is a fantastic option for a weekend lunch or an easy yet impressive dinner for friends. By using lean cuts like flat iron or hanger steak, you enjoy a melt-in-the-mouth texture that pairs beautifully with the acidity of the orange and lemon dressing.

  • 240ml pitted olives (such as Niçoise or Kalamata), chopped

  • 1 tablespoon minced capers

  • 1 anchovy fillet packed in oil, drained, minced (optional)

  • 900g flatiron, flank, hanger, or skirt steak

  • Koshersalt

  • Zest and juice of 1 orange

  • 60ml thinly sliced shallots

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano

  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic

  • 2 tablespoons smoked paprika

  • 2 matskedar vegetabilisk olja

  • 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

  • 4 large tomatoes (about 1.4kg ), sliced 1/4" thick

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced into rings

  • 1/4 cup (loosely packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil plus more for drizzling

  • Flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • 1 bunch watercress, tough stems removed (about 950ml )

  • 1 matsked färsk citronsaft

  • Ingredient info: Smoked paprika is sold at specialty foods stores and latienda.com.

Stir 80ml olive oil, next 4 ingredients, and anchovy, if using, in a small bowl. Add more olive oil for a thinner tapenade, if desired. (For a smoother sauce, purée tapenade in a food processor or blender.) Set aside.

Place steak in a large baking dish and season generously with salt. Stir orange zest and juice and remaining 6 ingredients in a small bowl to combine. Spread mixture evenly over both sides of steak and let marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.

Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Grill steak, turning once, until nicely charred, about 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Transfer to a carving board and let rest for 5-10 minutes.

Arrange tomatoes on a serving platter. Scatter shallot and parsley over; drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, toss watercress with 1 tablespoon each oil and lemon juice. Season watercress to taste with salt.

Mound watercress on platter. Slice steak against the grain; transfer to platter with tomatoes and watercress. Spoon tapenade on steak and serve alongside.
