SIRLOIN STEAK SALAD



Sirloin Steak Salad image

This recipe was attached to some fresh chives I purchased at Publix (our local supermarket). Haven't made it yet, but it looks to be a light and refreshing main dish to make on a summer evening -- when all the kids come over I'm going to try it (with my husband as "grill master"). I like the fact that much of it can be pre-prepped. For our family, it will be a meal-in-one. All we'll need to add is a dessert. (Note: cooking time includes the time for cooling the steak.)

Tips:

  • To ensure the best flavor and tenderness, select high-quality sirloin steaks that are at least 1 inch thick.
  • Marinate the steaks for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices. This will help to infuse the steaks with flavor and keep them moist during grilling.
  • Heat your grill to high heat before cooking the steaks. This will help to sear the outside of the steaks and create a flavorful crust.
  • Cook the steaks for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the steaks are cooked to your liking.
  • Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Pair the grilled sirloin steak with a simple salad for a healthy and delicious meal.
