Steak season is year-round with this easy skillet recipe. Medium-rare strip loin is melt-in-your-mouth delicious on top of sweet succotash.

Ingredients

2 strip loin steaks, about 1-in thick (1 lb. total), at room temp
3 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 tsp salt
Dash black pepper
2 tbsp finely copped shallot
½ cup sodium-free beef stock
1 tbsp good-quality balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 ½ cups fresh corn kernels, (from 4 small ears of corn)
1 cup baby lima beans or shelled edamame, defrosted from frozen
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
¼ cup sliced green onion
½ cup diced cherry tomatoes

Instructions

Rub steaks with 1 tbsp of the olive oil and season with ½ tsp of the salt and black pepper. Heat a large cast iron or heavy pan on high heat. Add steaks and sear, turning at least once, for 3 to 4 min per side or until outside is browned and internal temperature is 120F (for medium rare) or to desired degree of doneness. Remove steaks to a rack; keep warm.
Add shallot to pan; stir for 30 seconds or until softened. Add beef stock and bring to a boil; boil for 1 to 2 min or until reduced by half. Stir in balsamic vinegar. Add butter; stir until melted and combined. Scrape sauce into a bowl; reserve with steak. Wipe pan with a paper towel.
Add remaining 2 tbsp olive oil to pan; heat on high. Add corn and sauce for 3 min or until corn is browned and popping in pan. Add beans, thyme and sauce; heat for 1 min longer. Season with remaining ½ tsp salt. Stir in green onion and cherry tomato. Remove pan from heat. Slice steak and tuck into pan. Pour jus over meat or serve on the side.
