We seasoned it with salt and pepper and threw it in a hot pan. What came out was one of the most tender steaks we’ve ever had. Twice-cooked potatoes and crunchy flat leaf spinach transform what was a meat and potatoes plate into a modern weeknight supper. Cook, relax and enjoy!

Trim roots from scallions and thinly slice. Place in a large bowl and whisk in vinegar, horseradish, Dijon, 2 tablespoons oil and ¼ teaspoon salt; season with pepper. -
Roast potatoes
Coat a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons oil. Add potatoes, ½ teaspoon salt and toss to combine. Using the bottom of a glass, press down on each potato to flatten slightly, then turn to coat in oil. Roast until golden and crispy, 15 minutes. -

Warm vinaigrette
Add vinaigrette to hot skillet and stir, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of skillet, until evenly incorporated. -
Serve
Divide steak, potatoes and spinach between plates and drizzle warm vinaigrette over everything. Enjoy!
