Ingredients

  • 1 lb rib eye or sirloin steak
  • 4 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, or your choice)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

1
Prepare the Balsamic Glaze

In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it cook down until it thickens and reduces by half, about 8-10 minutes. Set aside to cool.

2
Season the Steak

Rub the steak with olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.

3
Cook the Steak

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

4
Assemble the Salad

On two large plates, arrange the mixed greens as a base. Top with sliced avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.

5
Add the Steak

Lay the sliced steak over the salad.

6
Drizzle with Glaze

Finish the salad by drizzling the balsamic glaze over the top.

7
Serve and Enjoy

Serve immediately, enjoying the rich flavors and textures of this nutrient-packed dish.
