Time 48m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 ounces dried French bread, torn into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped fresh mozzarella cheese
2 cups coarsely chopped seeded red or yellow tomatoes
1 cup seeded chopped cucumber
1 cup thinly sliced red onion
⅓ cup chopped fresh basil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 pound bison flank steak
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place bread pieces in a shallow baking pan. Drizzle with the 2 tablespoons oil; toss gently to coat. Bake for 5 minutes or until toasted, stirring once or twice. Cool slightly; transfer to a very large bowl.
  • Combine mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and basil in a large bowl; set aside.
  • For dressing, whisk together vinegar, the 3 tablespoons oil, the garlic, the 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Pour dressing over the tomato mixture; toss to coat. Spoon the tomato mixture over the bread; toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Serve with Grilled Bison Flank Steak.
  • Grilled Bison Flank Steak: Sprinkle bison flank steak with the 1 teaspoon salt and the 1/4 teaspoon pepper. For gas or charcoal grill, place steak on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium-high heat. Grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until desired doneness. Cover bison flank steak with foil and let stand for 5 minutes. Thinly slice steak across the grain.

This salad is a great summer dish. It's light and refreshing, and the bison flank steak is a nice change from the usual chicken or pork.

I'm not a fan of bison, but this salad was still really good. The dressing was light and flavorful, and the salad was very refreshing.

This salad was disappointing. The dressing was too oily and the steak was tough.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover steak. I used a sirloin steak and it was delicious.

This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a different type of vinegar. Otherwise, it was a great salad.

This salad was easy to make and very tasty. I used flank steak instead of bison, and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of bison, but this salad was still delicious. The dressing was light and flavorful, and the salad was very refreshing. I would definitely make this again with a different type of steak.
