- Cook the steak on the grill or in a cast-iron pan for about 3 minutes on each side.
- Allow the steak to rest, tented with foil, for 10 minutes.
- Cook the vegetables until they have charred spots and are softened, approximately 5-6 minutes total.
- Thinly slice the steak across the grain and cut the vegetables into desired slices.
