Preparing the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Greens

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes (halved), cucumber (sliced), and thinly sliced red onion.

    Slice the Steak

    Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

Making the Dressing

  1. 6

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 7

    Toss the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the salad base and toss gently to combine.

  2. 8

    Add Steak

    Top the dressed salad with the sliced steak.

    Serve immediately while the steak is warm.
