Zesty Steak Salad
- 1 head romaine lettuce, sliced thinly or broken into bite-sized leaves
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 jalapeño peppers, cut in half and seeded, then thinly sliced
- ¼ cup plus 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 pound flank steak, skirt steak, or top round sirloin steak
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
This is a simple steak salad, but one you will love.
- Combine lettuce, onion and pepper in a large bowl.
- Whisk together ¼ cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon mustard and the red wine vinegar. Drizzle over lettuce, onion and pepper.
- Smear 1 tablespoon of mustard and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over both sides of the steak. Salt the steak lightly and sear in a pan over very high heat, or grill on high. It should only take a few minutes on each side. Remove from heat and slice thinly. Combine with lettuce. Add salt and pepper to taste.
