Step-by-Step

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together sumac, paprika, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper. Add the sliced blade steak and toss to coat evenly, making sure the meat is fully covered in the spice mixture. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the blade steak from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drip off. Add the steak to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Transfer the steak to a plate and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

    In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. Add the diced Roma tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes or until they start to break down and release their juices.

    Stir in the tahini, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and black pepper into the skillet with the tomatoes. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the chutney has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded together.

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the ravioli according to the package instructions until they float to the surface. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining the ravioli. Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet with the tomato chutney and toss to combine, adding some reserved pasta water if the mixture seems too thick.
