  • •fajita seasoning, to taste
  • •Grana Padano cheese, freshly grated

  2. Oil both sides: Brush both sides of each steak generously with olive oil.
  3. Season: Season generously with fajita seasoning.
  4. Top with cheese: Sprinkle freshly grated Grana Padano over the top of each steak.
  5. Roast: Roast at 425°F until the edges are charred and the center is fork-tender, about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  6. Finish and serve: Finish with a sprinkle of optional red chili flakes, then serve warm as a side, or as a hearty main for your vegetarian friends.
Kevin's Tip: Straightforward flavors, straightforward method — don't overthink this one, just let the oven do the work.
