How to Make Irresistible Quick Steak and Rich Blue Cheese Salad
- Season your chosen steak with salt and pepper. Heat a pan over medium-high heat, then sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a lovely medium-rare finish.
- Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 5 minutes to lock in the juices.
- Rinse the mixed greens, drain them well, then toss them together in a large bowl with sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
- In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- After resting, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
- Gently add the sliced steak to the bowl of fresh greens, drizzle the dressing over, and add crumbled blue cheese. Toss until combined.
Notes
For added texture, sprinkle with toasted walnuts before serving. Combine the salad and dressing right before serving for maximum freshness.
