3.Heat chickpeas and remaining olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat (4-5 minutes), add harissa and crush with a fork or potato masher, then season to taste.

4.Heat grapeseed oil in a frying pan over high heat, add steak and cook, turning occasionally until well-browned all over (1-2 minutes). Carve and serve with crushed chickpeas and peppers.
