Recipe: Gluten Free Steak with Chickpeas, Tomatoes, & Feta

My husband was at it again in the kitchen, a girl can really get used to this! 

He found another gluten free recipe on the Real Simple website and boy was it yummy.

Ingredients: 

• - 2 tablespoons olive oil
• - 2 1-inch-thick strip steaks (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
• - kosher salt and pepper
• - 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• - 4 plum tomatoes, sliced into half-moons
• - 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
• - 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• - 1 cup crumbled Feta (4 ounces)

Directions: 

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steaks with ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Cook the steaks to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining oil over medium-high heat.

Pat the chickpeas dry with paper towels and add them to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly crispy, 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir in the tomatoes, cilantro, lemon juice, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Transfer to plates and sprinkle with the Feta. Serve with the steak.

This was such a fun dish. It for sure game me some good ideas of other foods to try.
 I loved it, the kids actually ate it (how many 3 and 5 year old do you know that would eat this?), and the hubby enjoyed it too! 

What do you think? 
Is this a recipe one you and your family would try?
