GRILLED STEAK, MUSHROOM AND GREEN BEAN SALAD
Steps:
- 1. Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, toss the mushrooms, green beans, onion, 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Season the steak with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. 2. Grill the vegetables (place the beans on the grill perpendicular to the grates to prevent them from falling through), turning occasionally and removing them as they become tender, 8 to 12 minutes. At the same time, grill the steak, brushing occasionally with 2 tablespoons of the vinegar, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. 3. Divide the watercress, grilled vegetables, and steak among bowls. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of vinegar.
Tips:
- For the green beans, you can use fresh or frozen green beans. If using frozen, thaw them before using.
- To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender.
- Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- For the mushrooms, you can use any type of mushroom you like. Cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and oyster mushrooms are all good choices.
- To roast the mushrooms, toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- For the dressing, you can use a simple vinaigrette dressing made with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.
- To assemble the salad, combine the green beans, mushrooms, dressing, and any other desired toppings in a bowl and toss to coat.
