Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Prep the vegetables
- Scrub or peel the sweet potato. Cut the potato in half lengthwise, then crosswise into ¼-inch-thick half-moons.
- Peel the onion and cut it crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices. Separate the slices into rings.
- Remove the stems, ribs, and seeds from the bell pepper; thinly slice the pepper.
- If using the jalapeño, remove the stem, ribs, and seeds; thinly slice the jalapeño. Wash your hands after handling.
2
Roast the vegetables
While the vegetables roast, prepare the steaks.
3
Prep and cook the steaks
- Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt, pepper, and the sweet smoked paprika.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the steaks and cook, turning frequently, until well browned and your desired doneness is reached. For medium-rare, that’s 6 to 8 minutes for top sirloins and 4 to 6 minutes for New York strips and rib-eyes. Transfer the cooked steaks to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.

Prep the remaining ingredients; finish the vegetables
