Step 1
Pat beef dry. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear beef 2 minutes per side without moving. It should be golden brown; don't flip more than once.
Step 4
Pour in red wine and broth. Toss in carrots. Simmer uncovered for 12 minutes until beef is tender and liquid reduces by half.
Step 5
Add asparagus to the pan. Cook 3 minutes until just tender. Mix lemon zest and parsley in a small bowl.
Step 6
Squeeze lemon juice over the pan. Top with gremolata. Serve immediately in a shallow bowl with braising liquid.
