Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 large red onion, quartered and thinly sliced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, quartered and thinly sliced
• 1 medium green bell pepper, quartered and thinly sliced
• 1 1/2 tbsp minced fresh thyme plus 4 sprigs for garnish
• 1/2 cup dry white vermouth
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 lb flank steak, trimmed
• 4 oz goat cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)

Directions

1. Heat oil in a large nonstick saucepan over medium high heat. Add onion, bell peppers and minced thyme; saute 8 minutes. Stir in vermouth, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Lower heat and continue cooking for 8 minutes more. Cover and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, pat steak dry and season both sides with remaining salt and pepper. Heat a large grill pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat; add steak and cook 4 minutes. Flip steak and cook 3 to 4 minutes more for medium rare. Transfer to cutting board and let rest 5 minutes (resting meat is an important step to let the juices settle in). Cut across the grain into thin slices.
3. Divide onion-and-pepper mixture among 4 dinner plates and top each with flank steak slices. Sprinkle with goat cheese and garnish with a thyme sprig.
