FLANK STEAK WITH PEPPERS AND ONIONS
Paleo / Whole 30 compliant
 
1 lb. flank steak
Olive oil (alternatives: coconut, walnut or avocado oil)
1 green pepper
1 red peppers
1 large yellow or white onion
Coconut Aminos

* Prepare steak: Wash, pat dry with paper towels, season both sides with salt & pepper and pat seasoning into the meat. Set aside.
* Prepare vegetables: Wash peppers, cut the top off, remove core and chop.  Peel outer layer of onion away & discard; chop onion.
* Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium heat.  Drizzle with oil.  Add peppers and onions; stir to coat with oil.  Increase heat to medium high.  Cook vegetables until tender and slightly browned, stirring occasionally.
* Preheat cast iron grill pan (or outdoor grill).  Oil the pan/grill grate; add steak.  Cook for 3-4 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees (medium).  Remove steak to a cutting board.  Allow to rest 4-5 minutes. Thinly slice against the grain.
* On a serving platter, combine meat and vegetables.  Drizzle with coconut aminos (healthysubstitute for soy sauce).  Serve immediately.

* Refrigerate leftovers in single serving, glass containers for 'Grab-n-Go' meals the next day
