"The only time to eat diet food is while you are waiting for the steak to cook."
- Julia Child, Genius
I couldn't agree with Julia more. Eating great food is eating healthy and eating healthy starts with great food. Hanger steak is a great choice because it's full of flavor but lower in fat. This is a quick and easy recipe that works fantastic for a weeknight meal or an elegant dinner party.

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a large skillet in the oven.
Place the hanger steaks in a bowl with the olive oil, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, tomato paste, water, salt, pepper and Dijon mustard. Toss the steaks well to thoroughly coat with the sauce.
When the pan is hot , spray the pan with oil and add the hanger steaks. Reserve whatever marinade doesn't cling to the steaks.

Remove the pan from the oven and place the steaks on a cutting board. Let them rest for a few minutes. While they are resting add the water to the pan 1 tablespoon at a time whisking to create a sauce. Use more water if needed but don't make the sauce too thin.
Slice the steaks and place it on a plate and top each with half of the sauce.
