Steps:

• Steaks: Brush the steaks with olive oil; sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat a heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice crosswise into thin strips. Set aside.
• Bean salad: In a large bowl, combine the beans, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, scallions, cilantro, and oregano. Mix gently. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
• Put the bean salad on a platter and arrange the warm steak slices on top.

Steps:

• For the crispy prosciutto:
• Heat a nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Put the prosciutto pieces in the pan and cook until crisp. Remove the prosciutto from the heat and reserve for the green bean and asparagus salad.
• For the warm lemon dressing:
• Put 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium- high heat. Add the shallots and season with salt. Saute the shallots until tender. Add the almonds, raisins, and olives, and mix to incorporate. Add the lemon juice and honey, stir to combine. Add the remaining olive oil, season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
• For the green bean and asparagus salad:
• Cut the green beans and asparagus into 1-inch pieces and put in a bowl. Pour the warm lemon dressing over the green beans and asparagus. Toss to combine and garnish with the crispy prosciutto.
