1. Prep vegetables
Bring a medium saucepan of water to
the boil for the vegetables. Halve the
carrot lengthwise and thinly slice. Trim
the beans. Trim the stems from the
snow peas, removing the strings from
one side. Finely grate ½ tsp lemon zest,
then cut the lemon into wedges.
2. Marinate steaks
Combine the chermoula seasoning (to
taste) and 1 tbs olive oil in a shallow
dish and season with salt and pepper.

2
Heat a medium frypan over high heat
until hot (it’s important to have the
pan very hot before adding the steaks,
otherwise they may stew slightly and
become tough). Reduce the heat to
medium-high and cook the steaks,
turning regularly, for 4-6 mins for
medium-rare, or until cooked to your
liking. Remove from the pan and rest
for 3 mins.
4. Cook vegetables
Meanwhile, cook the carrot in the pan of
boiling water for 1 min. Add the beans
and cook for a further 2 mins. Add the
snow peas and cook for a further 1 min
or until the vegetables are tender. Drain,
then season with salt and pepper.

5. Make feta dressing
While the vegetables are cooking,
whisk the lemon zest, 1 tbs extra virgin
olive oil and 2 tsp white wine vinegar in
a bowl. Crumble in the feta, add a pinch
of chilli 昀氀akes, if desired, and whisk to
combine. Taste, then season with salt
and pepper.
6. Get ready to serve
Slice the steaks. Divide the steak and
vegetables among plates and drizzle
with any resting juices, if desired. Spoon
over the feta dressing, scatter with a
pinch of chilli 昀氀akes, if desired, and
serve with the lemon wedges.
