The timeless combination of steak and potatoes gets extra pep from jarred roasted peppers and aromatic charmoula, an herb and spice blend typically used in North Africa as an instant flavor booster for grilled meats and fish.
Steak can be grilled in an oiled hot 2-burner grill pan, turning once, 12 to 15 minutes total for medium-rare.

Preparation
Step 1
Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat; see Grilling Procedure .
Step 2
Cover potatoes with water in a saucepan and season well with salt. Simmer, partially covered, until just tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain potatoes, then arrange on a platter with roasted peppers.
Step 3
While potatoes cook, pat steak dry and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Oil grill rack, then grill steak, turning once, 10 to 12 minutes total for medium-rare. Let steak rest on a cutting board 5 minutes before thinly slicing across the grain.
Step 4
While steak rests, with motor running, drop garlic into a food processor and finely chop. Add cilantro and pulse until chopped. Add lemon juice, spices, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and oil. Pulse until cilantro is finely chopped and sauce comes together. Transfer charmoula to a small bowl.
Step 5
Arrange sliced steak, with any juices, over potatoes and peppers. Serve charmoula on the side.
