Ingredients

1/4 cup
plus 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
1 1/4 lb.
hanger steak or petite beef filet, trimmed and at room temperature 30 minutes
Kosher salt and pepper
2 Tbsp.
red wine vinegar
1 tsp.
Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp.
Worcestershire sauce

small shallot, finely chopped

1/4 cup
flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped and divided
1

Directions

1. Step 1Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in large cast-iron skillet on medium-high.

Transfer to cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
