Remove the sirloin steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature, about 10 minutes. Pat the steak dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute.
While the steak rests, prepare the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion. Mince the garlic clove for the dressing.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the vinaigrette.
Place the arugula in a large salad bowl. Add the cherry tomatoes and sliced red onion. Drizzle half of the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain and place the slices on top of the salad. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette.
If desired, sprinkle the salad with freshly grated Parmesan cheese for a finishing touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy and flavorful P90x Steak and Arugula Salad!
