Cooking Steps
- Peel, then thinly slice shallot.
- Add shallots, vinegar, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water to a small pot.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, 1-2 min.
- Remove the pot from heat. Transfer shallots, including pickling liquid, to a medium bowl.
- Place in the fridge to cool.
- Meanwhile, cut ciabatta into 1-inch pieces, then arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Toast in the top of the oven, tossing halfway through, until lightly golden, 5-8 min.
- Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
- Core, then cut pear into 1/4-inch slices.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.

- Thinly slice chives.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Season with thyme, garlic, salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then steak. Sear until golden brown, 3-4 min per side.**
- When steaks are done, transfer to a cutting board.
- Cover loosely with foil and let rest, 5 min.
- While steaks rest, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lemon juice, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) lemon zest, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
