Ginger Steak Salad

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Salad

Ingredients

  • Dressing/Marinade:
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp sherry or white wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp finely minced ginger
  • 1/2 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced
  • Salad:
  • 8 oz rib-eye steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 cups salad greens
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Directions

  1. Make the dressing: Combine the soy sauce, olive oil, sherry, lime juice, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and jalapeno in a small jar.

  2. Shake it for a good 30-40 seconds, until it’s all combined. Give it a taste and add more of whatever you’d like!

  3. Place the steak in a plastic bag and pour in half the dressing/marinade. Seal the bag, forcing out the air, and let the steak marinade in the fridge for an hour or up to 6 hours. Store the remaining dressing in the fridge.

  4. After the steak has marinated, heat the olive oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 1 1/2-2 minutes per side, or until medium-rare.

  5. Remove the steak from the pan and allow it to rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into strips.

  6. In a large bowl, combine the greens, green onions, and tomatoes. Pour in the rest of the dressing, toss to combine, and transfer the salad to a large serving platter.

  7. Arrange the strips of steak all over the top.
