Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 (1 1/2-inch-thick) boneless top loin steaks (10 ounces each)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 pound large shallots, thinly sliced lengthwise (2 cups)
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 head escarole (1 pound), torn into 1-inch pieces (6 cups)
Special Equipment
an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Stir together salt, pepper, and cumin in a small bowl. Pat steaks dry and sprinkle spice mixture evenly on both sides, rubbing to adhere.
  • Heat oil in a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook steaks, turning over once, until thermometer inserted horizontally registers 115°F, about 12 minutes total.
  • Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered, 10 minutes. (Beef will continue to cook as it stands.) Add shallots to skillet and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until just softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in wine, vinegar, and brown sugar and cook 3 minutes. Add butter and cook, whisking constantly, until butter is incorporated and sauce is slightly thickened. Pour any meat juices accumulated on cutting board into sauce.
  • Cut steaks into 1/4-inch slices and serve over escarole. Spoon shallots and sauce over steak.

The steak in this salad was a bit tough. I think I'll try using a different cut of meat next time.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steak was overcooked. I think I'll cook it for less time next time.

This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I'll use less red wine vinegar next time.

Easy to follow recipe and the steak salad turned out great! I used a flank steak and it was cooked to perfection. The shallots and red wine vinegar added a nice tang.
