Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and black pepper. Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the baby spinach, sliced Bartlett pears, pickled red onions, and smoked blue cheese. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Slice the grilled steak against the grain and place on top of the salad. Drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
