Step 1
Season the ribeye steak with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.

Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 6
To prepare the balsamic vinaigrette, whisk together 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of maple syrup, and finely minced garlic clove in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil while whisking to emulsify the dressing.
Step 7
Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain.

Drizzle the salad with the prepared balsamic vinaigrette.
