Inexpensive steaks get an upgrade from a Dijon balsamic vinaigrette and a dollop of blue cheese butter. The vinaigrette also makes an earthy, tangy dressing for a crunchy celery salad.

Steps:
- Soak the onions in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes (this helps remove some of the pungent bite).
- Pierce the steaks with a fork and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Coat them in 3 tablespoons of the French Style Dijon Balsamic Vinaigrette in a shallow bowl or baking dish. Set aside while you prepare the blue cheese butter and salad.
- Mash the blue cheese, butter and 1 tablespoon of the parsley in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Drain the onion and pat dry. Toss with the celery and the remaining 2 tablespoons parsley in another bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Cook the steaks until browned on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook 3 to 5 more minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate and let rest 5 minutes.
- Divide the celery salad among 4 plates. Top each with a steak and drizzle with any pan juices or collected juices on the plate. Top each steak with a mound of blue cheese butter. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette.
BLUE CHEESE STEAK SALAD
Steps:
- To make croutons, bake cubed garlic bread at 350º F for 10 minutes, or until slightly crisp. Toss chopped romaine with tomatoes, steak, dressing and croutons.
Tips:
- To save time, use pre-sliced steak or buy steak tips. If using a whole steak, slice it against the grain into thin strips.
- If you don't have blue cheese dressing, you can make your own by whisking together mayonnaise, sour cream, crumbled blue cheese, milk, and seasonings.
- For a healthier salad, use grilled or roasted vegetables instead of fried ones.
- Add some chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch and flavor.
- Serve the salad immediately after assembling so that the dressing doesn't wilt the lettuce.
Conclusion:
The Blue Cheese Steak Salad is a hearty and flavorful salad that's perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. The combination of tender steak, tangy blue cheese dressing, and crisp vegetables is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying salad, give this recipe a try.
