Sometimes, you just crave a good steak. But I like to combine mine with vegetables as well, and what better way than with a yummy steak salad. A plethora of flavor in each bite from roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, caramelized onions, cranberries, feta and avocado. Whoa! Delish! Hint: Sometimes I don't even use a separate dressing, because the oils from the peppers and artichoke hearts flavor and dress it enough.

How To Make flank steak salad

  • 1
    Preheat grill, and reduce to low heat.
  • 2
    In a large frying pan, over medium-low heat, saute onions in about 1 tbsp olive oil, for approximately 20 minutes to caramelize them. When done, set aside.
  • 3
    Season steak with steak rub on both sides. Coat grill with oil, and grill steak over low heat until steak is cooked to medium-rare (or your preferred temp). When done, let rest for 5-10 minutes, then cut into thin slices.
  • 4
    To serve, dish up some of the lettuce onto a plate or in a bowl, and top with steak and remaining ingredients (red peppers, artichoke hearts, cranberries, cheese, grilled onions, avocados).
  • 5
    Drizzle the salad with olive and balsamic vinegar. Enjoy!
  • 6
    NOTE: You can either add all salad ingredients to a bowl and toss before serving, or have each ingredient separate and let each person choose which toppings work for them.
