Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Flank Steak:
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil or olive oil
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 teaspoon hot chili paste (such as sambal oelek)*
1/2 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon honey
1 1 1/2-pound flank steak
Pepper and watermelon salad:
1/4 cup hot chili sauce (such as sriracha)*
1/4 cup grapeseed oil or olive oil
3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 1/4 teaspoons honey
4 large bell peppers, preferably assorted colors, cut into 1/2-inch squares
2 tablespoons minced red jalapeño chiles
2 cups 1/2-inch cubes seedless watermelon

Steps:

  • For steak: Whisk all ingredients except flank steak in 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dish. Add steak; turn to coat. Cover and let marinate at room temperature 2 hours, turning occasionally. Alternatively, cover and chill at least 4 hours and up to 1 day. Bring to room temperature before grilling.
  • For pepper and watermelon salad:
  • Whisk hot chili sauce, oil, vinegar, and honey in small bowl; season dressing with salt and pepper. Place peppers and chiles in large bowl. Toss with 6 tablespoons dressing. Let marinate 2 hours at room temperature. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover dressing and salad separately and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Prepare barbecue (high heat). Grill steak with some marinade still clinging until cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for rare. Transfer to work surface; let rest 10 minutes. Thinly slice steak against grain; transfer to platter. Drizzle with some of remaining dressing from salad.
  • Toss watermelon into pepper salad. Serve flank steak and salad with remaining dressing alongside. * Available in the Asian foods section of many supermarkets and at Asian markets.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality ingredients. Look for well-marbled steak, crisp bell peppers, and fresh greens.
  • To ensure even cooking, slice the steak against the grain and pound it to an even thickness.
  • When grilling the steak, cook it over medium-high heat for a few minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute and make the steak more tender.
  • For a flavorful marinade, combine soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, and ginger. Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  • To assemble the salad, toss the steak, grilled peppers, arugula, and dressing together. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Grilled Pepper Steak Salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a quick weeknight dinner. The steak is tender and flavorful, the peppers are sweet and smoky, and the arugula adds a peppery bite. The dressing is light and tangy, and it brings all of the flavors together perfectly.
