Grilled Steak with Olive Oil Charred Scallions
2 lbs. flank steak or hanger steak
kosher salt
ground black pepper
2 bunches scallions
1 Tbsp. + 1 tsp. Carapelli Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided
flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
DIRECTIONS:
Generously sprinkle the steaks with kosher salt and black pepper and set aside.
Rinse the scallions and pat dry. Trim off any wilted ends and thin onion skin.
Preheat grill for medium-high direct heat. Pour 1 Tbsp. of Carapelli Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil on a thick, folded piece of paper towel and carefully wipe the hot grill grates, holding the paper towel with tongs for safety.
Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side, flipping once or twice, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 140º F for medium-rare.
Let the steaks rest while the scallions cook. Toss the scallions with the remaining 1 tsp. of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in a perforated grill pan or crosswise on the grill grates and cook just until charred in spots, about 3–4 minutes.
To serve, slice the steaks against the grain into 1-inch thick pieces. Arrange on a platter with the scallions. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
Alternatively, preheat a grill pan or large cast iron skillet over high heat for at least 5 minutes. Prep with olive oil and cook the steak and scallions as directed above.

Olive Oil is always on hand at our house, from roasted veggies to salads and pasta….,,our bottle sits right near the stove.
My fave recipe is so simple and fast, I make it constantly as a side dish and to take in my lunch to work. I eyeball it, and pour olive oil in a big glass bowl, then add in some balsamic vinegar, probably 1 part vinegar to 10 parts oil, then I liberally add in dried oregano and dried dill, a little dried parsley, some Celtic Sea Salt, black pepper and whisk them together. I rinse a couple cans of garbonzo beans and add them to the dressing, then I halve 2 cans of either RIPE green or black olives, halve or quarter a bit less than a pint of grape tomatoes, then add in either shredded or grated parm, or shredded mozzarella, or feta chunks and it’s done!

My son is an aspiring chef…and he’s only 9! So to encourage him, every Sunday he’s in charge of making whatever he wants in the kitchen, his little sister right there by his side to help. She’s 8! Well, last weekend, we created something the kids have named Yum-Goo. Granted, we weren’t allowed to name it until after it was done and we tasted it, so Yum…really fit. The recipe was simple and yet so tasty. We pour some Carapelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a pan with some smashed fresh garlic, let that brown before adding fresh diced tomatoes, tomato paste, salsa and a few squeezes of crema. Let simmer. While that’s getting hot, you prep 1 pack of chicken legs, though please use the piece of your choice! Season with chicken seasoning, pepper, salt, and line them in a deep baking dish. Once the sauce is simmered, heavily pour over the chicken, making sure to turn and flip them to cover them completely. Stick them in a 400 degree heated oven and bake for 45 mins to an hour. As a side, you can pair with yellow or white rice and black beans. We went yellow rice! Pile some on your plate and top with 2 pieces of the chicken, making sure to get some extra sauce from the pan right on that mountain of yum you just made. And if you want, why not hit the finished product with another dash of Carapelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil! It was amazingly delicious, and we plan to make it again…and again. HE’S 9!
Would love to try.
