Ingredients
For the Marinade & Dressing
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
For the Salad
2 pounds sirloin or rib-eye steak
6 cups chopped romaine lettuce
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup Kalamata olives
8 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Place the steak in a shallow dish and pour about one-third of the marinade over it. Rub the marinade gently into the meat and let it sit for 15 minutes.
- While the steak marinates, prepare the vegetables by chopping the lettuce, tomatoes, and onion.
- Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly oil the surface.
- Cook the steak for about 4–5 minutes total, turning halfway through, or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness.
- Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
- Slice the steak thinly across the grain.
- In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and olives.
- Add the sliced steak on top, drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad, and sprinkle with crumbled blue cheese.
- Toss gently and serve immediately.
Notes
- Let the steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
- Always slice steak across the grain for maximum tenderness.
- If blue cheese is too strong for your taste, substitute feta or goat cheese.
- For extra flavor, you can grill the vegetables or add roasted potatoes to the salad.
