2 yellow or red bell peppers (ribs and seeds removed), cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1/4 cup plus 1 tsp. vegetable oil

1 1/2 lbs. red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 3/4 inch pieces (or substitute 1 bag Simply Potatoes, pre-cut and pre-seasoned frozen potatoes)

1 1/2 lbs. London broil (Top Sirloin or Flank Steak)

1T paprika

 

Heat boiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat.

Line a broiler pan with aluminum foil. Set aside.

In a large skillet, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium.

Add potatoes and cook, turning frequently with a thin metal spatula, until golden and crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. (Allow less time, only about 10 minutes, if using frozen potatoes.)

Add peppers; season with salt and pepper. (You do not need to use salt and pepper if using frozen, pre-seasoned potatoes.)

Continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes more.

Meanwhile, rub beef with remaining teaspoon oil; season with paprika, salt and pepper.

Broil, turning once, until medium-rare (an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part should register 130 degrees), 10 to 15 minutes.

Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and set aside to rest, 5 to 10 minutes.

Thinly slice beef against the grain, and serve with vegetables.
