Is there a better way to eat steak than under a melty layer of pepper Jack with lemony broccoli rabe? We think not! Pickled peppers are the secret star of this dish, lending acidity and just the right amount of heat to an otherwise rich one-skillet meal. (Don’t throw out the pickled pepper liquid—it makes a great addition to a vinaigrette or Bloody Mary.) The steak should be pretty rare when you shingle it over the vegetables, but don’t worry: After a few minutes under the broiler, it will be perfectly cooked.
