Instructions

In a small bowl combine spices. Pat the steak dry with paper towel, season both sides with spice mixture, and set aside.

In a small saucepan, combine quinoa and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Peel and mince shallot and garlic. Add both to a large bowl.

Grate zest from half of the lemon; juice the entire lemon. Place zest and juice into the bowl with the garlic and shallot. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper; whisk to combine the dressing.

Halve the grape tomatoes and add to the bowl with the dressing.

Preheat a grill pan or regular skillet over medium-high heat.

Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom.

Place seasoned steaks on the pan and cook until preferred degree of doneness, 3-4 minutes per side for medium. Remove steaks from the pan and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Cook in batches if necessary.

Shave parsley leaves off the stems; discard the stems and mince the leaves. Add to the bowl with the vegetables.

Once the quinoa is finished, fluff with a fork and add to the bowl with the dressing and vegetables. Toss to combine.

To serve, slice steak into thin strips and divide between plates along with the salad. Enjoy!
