Mediterranean Grilled Lamb Steaks

Ingredients for Mediterranean Grilled Lamb Steaks

• 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

• 2 garlic cloves, smashed

• 1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf

• 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds

• 2 (3-by 1-inch) strips orange zest

• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced

• 1 (14-to 425g ) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes

• 1 (400g) can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered

• 80g pitted Kalamata olives, coarsely chopped

• 1 (2-pounds) boneless top round lamb roast

• Equipment: a large (2-burner) grill pan

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Cook garlic, bay leaf, fennel seeds, and zest, stirring, until fennel seeds are golden, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 3 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium, then add tomatoes with their juice, artichokes, and olives and cook, covered, until vegetables are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Discard bay leaf and zest.

Meanwhile, heat grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.

Cut lamb across the grain into 4 (1-inch-thick) steaks. Brush both sides of steaks with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper (total).

Grill lamb, turning once, about 10 minutes total for medium-rare.

Spoon tomato mixture onto plates and top with lamb.
