Ingredients
- 12 ounces Lean flank steak
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Minced garlic
- 6 cups Mixed salad greens (such as spinach, arugula, and romaine)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium Cucumber, sliced
- 0.5 small Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, sliced
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Season the flank steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic to make the vinaigrette.
Step 4
Brush the grill grates with a little olive oil to prevent sticking. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
Step 5
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
Step 6
In a large salad bowl, combine mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red onion.
Step 7
Drizzle the salad with the prepared vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
Step 8
Top the salad with the sliced grilled steak and avocado slices, then serve immediately.
