olive oil
red onion ½, sliced
chicory 1, chopped
cooked beetroot 100g, cut into wedges
greens (kale, chopped
balsamic vinegar 1 tbsp

Method

Step 1

Heat a frying pan until it’s very hot. Rub the steak with 1 tsp oil and season. Sear on both sides for 2 minutes for rare, or longer if you like, then leave to rest under foil.
Step 2

In the same pan, turn the heat down to medium, add the red onion and fry for 5 minutes until soft, then add the chicory, beetroot, and greens. Fry for 4 minutes, season, then add the balsamic and thyme. Simmer for a minute, until the balsamic coats the veg and the chicory is tender. Tip onto a plate and top with the steak.
