Ingredients
- 2 cups loosely packed fresh parsley
- 3 scallions, coarsely chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 anchovy fillets
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard

Directions
Make the salsa verde: Pulse the parsley, scallions, capers, lemon zest and juice, anchovies, garlic, mustard and olive oil in a food processor until slightly chunky. Pour into a bowl and season with salt.
Preheat a grill to high or place a grill pan over high heat. Pierce the steak all over with a fork and season with salt and pepper. Oil the grill or pan; grill the steak, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, turning once. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
Slice the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Serve with the tomatoes and salsa verde.

Made this dish before. It's one of my 5 star meals.
I like to add whole garlics to the food processor.

I made this recipe at a cookie exchange for a appetizer and all the guests loved it! I am excited to make this dish again next year!
A tip: If you have a party, wine tasting, or even a Christmas cookie exchange, make this recipe as well as some monkey bread! You can never go wrong with monkey bread!
