Steps:
- For the steak and peaches: Put the pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, garlic, scallions, onion and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Combine three-quarters of the marinade with the flank steak in a large resealable plastic freezer bag. Combine the remaining marinade with the peaches in a separate resealable plastic freezer bag. Refrigerate both at least 45 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Prepare a grill for high heat.
- For the salad: Using the tongs from a Food Network 17-piece Grilling Tool Set, grill the romaine cut-side down until lightly charred, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large platter. Put a stainless-steel mesh Food Network Grilling Tray on the grill. Add the onions and grill, tossing occasionally, until tender and charred in spots, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the steak from the marinade, shake off any excess, and put on a baking sheet. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Remove the peaches from the marinade to a plate. Grill the steak until well browned, about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Set aside on a cutting board to rest. Brush the peaches with olive oil and grill cut-side down just until grill-marks appear, about 1 minute.
- For the dressing: Meanwhile, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, pineapple juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl until combined.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Cut the peaches into thick wedges.
- Scatter the cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, peaches, cilantro and basil over the romaine. Top with the steak and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Drizzle with the dressing.

Steps:
- In a large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper. When pan starts to smoke, carefully add steaks. Allow the steaks to cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on 1 side, without moving or piercing the meat. This will help create a good, crusty sear. When steaks are brown, flip and sear the other side for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove meat to a large plate and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
- Decoratively line a large platter with arugula. Tear the roasted peppers into large pieces and scatter over the arugula. In a small bowl, whisk in the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar and any meat juices that may have collected on the plate from the steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
- Slice the steaks across the grain and on a bias into 1 1/2-inch thick pieces. Lay the slices on top of the salad and drizzle with dressing. Using a vegetable peeler, shave about Parmesan over the dish.

Steps:
- Prepare grill.
- In a bowl whisk together vinegar, mustard, oil, sugar, and salt to taste. Stir in remaining vinaigrette ingredients and season with pepper.
- Discard tough stems from watercress. Season steak with salt and pepper and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals about 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, grill steak in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer steak to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. Holding a sharp knife at a 45° angle, cut steak into about 12 thin slices.
- Spoon vinaigrette generously onto 2 large plates and mound watercress in center. Arrange steak slices on watercress.
Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Look for a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
- Season the steak properly: Season the steak with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before grilling. This will help to enhance the flavor of the steak.
- Grill the steak over direct heat: Grill the steak over direct heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy.
- Let the steak rest before serving: Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Choose the right bell peppers: Look for bell peppers that are firm and have vibrant colors. This will ensure that the bell peppers are fresh and flavorful.
- Cut the bell peppers properly: Cut the bell peppers into thin slices or strips. This will help them to cook evenly and quickly.
- Grill the bell peppers over direct heat: Grill the bell peppers over direct heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are slightly charred. This will help to bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Assemble the salad: Combine the grilled steak, grilled bell peppers, and any other desired ingredients in a bowl. Toss to combine and serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Grilled steak and bell pepper salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or picnic. The steak is juicy and flavorful, the bell peppers are sweet and smoky, and the dressing is tangy and refreshing. This salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
