Health and fertility benefits of Sheet-Pan Skirt Steak With Balsamic Vinaigrette, Broccolini, and White Beans

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system.

Ingredients

4 garlic cloves, divided
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano leaves, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 (1 1/2-pound) skirt steak, cut crosswise into 2 equal pieces
1 bunch broccolini (about 10 ounces), trimmed, halved lengthwise (quartered lengthwise if large)
1 (15-ounce) can white beans, rinsed, drained

Instructions

Finely chop 2 garlic cloves. Place in a large bowl or shallow baking dish, then whisk in vinegar, Dijon, 1/2 cup oil, 1 Tbsp. oregano, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup vinaigrette for serving; add steak to remaining vinaigrette and turn to coat. Let marinate at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.
Meanwhile, preheat broiler and thinly slice remaining 2 garlic cloves. Toss broccolini, remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1 Tbsp. oregano, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper on rimmed baking sheet. Broil 5 minutes, then remove from oven. Add beans and garlic and toss to combine. Set wire rack on top of broccolini mixture. Place steak on rack; discard vinaigrette.
Broil steak, turning halfway through, until cooked to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let steak rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile, transfer broccolini mixture to a medium bowl and toss with 1 Tbsp. reserved vinaigrette, then divide among 4 plates. Thinly slice steak against the grain and serve with broccolini mixture and remaining vinaigrette alongside.
