One-pan London broil with potatoes and asparagus

Serves 4

Ingredients: 

1.5 kg baby potatoes
1 large bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed
1 tbsp canola oil
1/2 tsp salt, divided
500 g flank steak
2 tbsp chopped parsley
Zest of 1 lemon

Method: 

1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Slice potatoes in half and place on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with oil, toss well to coat, and then spread out in an even layer.

2. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt and season with fresh pepper. Roast 15 minutes or until almost tender and slightly golden.

3. Take the pan out of the oven and make a space in the middle of the pan. Move oven rack to the highest rungs. Preheat broiler.

4. Make several shallow cuts in one side of the steak in a diamond pattern. Place steak in the space, cut side up, on the pan. Sprinkle with half of remaining 1/4 tsp salt and season with fresh pepper. Broil 5 minutes, then flip and broil another 5 minutes for medium-rare. Remove steak to a cutting board to rest.

5. Place asparagus on the pan (with potatoes) and toss a bit to coat with oil from the pan. Sprinkle with remaining salt and broil 3 to 5 minutes or until tender and golden.
Slice steak very thinly against the grain and sprinkle with chopped parsley and lemon zest.
