From the Test Kitchen

Originally from Egypt, dukkah is a blend of herbs and spices whose warming flavor and crunchy texture creates an immensely flavorful crust on our seared steak—a perfect complement to the rich, sweet mix of butter and honey dolloped on top. It’s all complete with two simple, comforting sides of mashed sweet potatoes and tender roasted broccoli brightened with a bit of fresh lemon juice.

Top the steak with the honey butter. Serve the remaining lemon wedges on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
