Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces beef tenderloin or sirloin
4 cups torn Boston or romaine lettuce, mesclun or any salad greens mixture (trimmed, washed and dried)
1 cup torn fresh mint leaves (trimmed, washed and dried)
1/4 cup minced red onion
1 medium cucumber, peeled, cut in half lengthwise, seeded and diced
Juice of 2 limes
1 tablespoon fish sauce (nam pla, available at Asian markets) or soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Start a charcoal or wood fire or heat a gas grill or broiler. Rack should be about 4 inches from heat source. Grill or broil beef until medium rare, 5 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Toss greens with mint, onion and cucumber. Combine all remaining ingredients with 1 tablespoon water -- mixture will be thin -- and toss greens with this dressing. Remove greens to a platter, reserving dressing remaining at bottom of bowl.
  • Slice cooled beef thinly, reserving its juice. Combine juice with leftover dressing. Lay slices of beef over salad, drizzle dressing all over, and serve.

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would make it again, but I would use less chili peppers.
