Grilled Balsamic Steak Salad
A bright and savory dish that combines grilled steak and charred corn over a bed of mixed greens, all drizzled with tangy balsamic glaze.
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
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Season the steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
- Grill the steak to desired doneness.
- In the meantime, roast the corn until slightly charred.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Assembly
- In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced steak, roasted corn, and Gorgonzola.
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze and toss gently to combine.
- 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.
