Steak Salad with Honey Dijon Dressing

Hi everyone! It’s Molly from my name is yeh here with a recipe that’s perfect for your summer grill parties. I’m typically one to go for the burgers and hot dogs when I’m hosting a grill party, but I recently had a life changing steak salad at a restaurant that I couldn’t stop dreaming about. It had all of my favorite things in it: cheese, tomatoes, bacon, big chewy croutons. So I’ve set out to recreate it just for you, with a honey dijon dressing that lends a perfect amount of sweet and sourness to this delightfully refreshing (yet filling!) salad.

Steak Salad with Honey Dijon Dressing
 
 
 
 
Serves: 4
 
Ingredients
Steak
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 12 oz strip steak
  • Kosher salt
  • Black Pepper
  • ¼ cup olive oil
Dressing
  • ½ shallot, minced
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tb white wine vinegar
  • 1 tb dijon mustard
  • 1 tb honey
  • Kosher salt
  • Black pepper
Salad
  • 8 oz fresh spinach
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved and lightly salted
  • ½ shallot, thinly sliced
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 2 thick slices multigrain bread, grilled and chopped into cubes, or store-bought croutons
  • Parmesan cheese
 
Instructions
  1. Rub the minced garlic all over the steak. Sprinkle both sides with a good pinch of salt and a few turns of pepper. Place in a dish and pour the olive oil over it. Cover and let marinate for 1 hour (up to 4 hours) in the fridge. Remove it from the fridge about 15 minutes before you're going to cook it. Light a grill to high and then cook the steak on one side, occasionally brushing it with marinade, until it gets grill marks, 4-5 minutes, and then flip it and cook on the other side until desired doneness, 4-7 minutes. Remove it and let it sit for 10 minutes. Slice into bite-sized strips.
  2. To make the dressing, whisk all ingredients together.
  3. To assemble the salad, place the spinach, tomatoes, shallot, bacon, and croutons on a platter. Lay the steak over it. Finish with parmesan cheese shavings, and then dress to taste.
  4. Enjoy!
