Sheet Pan Mediterranean Dinners
A vibrant and healthy Mediterranean-inspired sheet pan dinner featuring tender flank steak roasted with juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and sweet onions, finished with crumbled feta. This simple, hands-off meal is perfect for a busy weeknight.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lb flank steak trimmed
- 2 medium tomatoes cut into wedges
- 1 large red onion sliced into thick rings
- 1 large cucumber peeled and cut into 1-inch thick rounds
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tbsp olive oil divided
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup feta cheese crumbled
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (optional
- 1 wedge lemon for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Pat the flank steak dry with paper towels. Rub 1 tablespoon of olive oil, half the oregano, salt, and pepper over both sides of the steak. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the tomato wedges, red onion rings, cucumber rounds, minced garlic, remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and the rest of the oregano. Toss gently to coat all the vegetables.
- Arrange the seasoned flank steak on one side of the prepared sheet pan. Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly around the steak on the same pan.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the steak reaches your desired doneness (130-135°F for medium-rare) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. You may flip the steak halfway through cooking if desired.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.
- Divide the sliced steak and roasted vegetables among plates. Sprinkle generously with crumbled feta cheese and fresh parsley (if using). Serve immediately with a lemon wedge, if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the flank steak for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, and extra oregano. Serve with warm pita bread or a side of quinoa for a more substantial meal. You can also add bell peppers or zucchini to the vegetable mix.
