Method

Cooking the Steak

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Generously season the 8 oz strip steak with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Place the seasoned steak on the hot surface and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.

Preparing the Salad

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the steak is resting, wash and halve the grape tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the halved grape tomatoes, sliced red onion, and bleu cheese crumbles.

Serving

  1. 6

    Slice the Steak

    After resting, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

  2. 7

    Combine and Dress

    Top the salad mixture with the sliced steak and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of your chosen dressing. Toss gently to combine.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately with extra dressing on the side if desired.
