Ingredients
  

Protein
  • 1 lb flank or skirt steak (about 1 inch thick)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
Sauce & Finish
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
Veggies & Greens
  • 2 ears corn, husks removed (or 1 cup frozen corn, thawed)
  • 4 cups mixed greens (baby spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
Cheese & Seasoning
  • 1/3 cup crumbled Gorgonzola (or blue cheese)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season the steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Grill the steak to desired doneness.
  2. In the meantime, roast the corn until slightly charred.
  3. Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Assembly
  1. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced steak, roasted corn, and Gorgonzola.
  2. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and toss gently to combine.
  3. Serve immediately.

Notes

Bring steak to room temperature before grilling for even cooking. You can use a cast-iron skillet for a great sear if you don't have a grill. Consider serving with crusty bread or warm pita.
