Pat the ribeye steak dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the desired level of doneness is achieved.
Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
While the steak is resting, prepare the salad base. Place the baby spinach leaves in a large salad bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion. Add both to the salad bowl with the spinach.
Crumble the feta cheese and scatter it over the vegetables.
To make the dressing, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and chopped parsley in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Arrange the sliced steak on top of the salad and drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad.
Toss the salad gently to combine all the flavors or serve the dressing on the side for individual servings.
Serve immediately while the beef is still warm.
