With plenty of sliced steak and veggies, this main dish salad will please even the biggest appetites. It's a terrific dinner on hot summer days or any time your feel like grilling. Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 beef flank steak (1 pound) |
1 large sweet onion, sliced |
1 package (5 ounces) spring mix salad greens |
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained |
1 jar (7 ounces) roasted sweet red peppers, drained and sliced |
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
Directions:
1. Combine the salt, garlic powder and pepper; rub over steak. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, rub on grill rack to coat lightly.
2. Grill steak, covered, over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°).
3. Place onion slices on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Fold foil around onion and seal tightly. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 16-20 minutes or until onions are tender. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape.
4. Let steak stand for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the greens, beans, red peppers and grilled onion.
5. In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, basil, oil and mustard. Pour 1/4 cup over salad; toss to coat. Divide among four salad plates. Slice flank steak across the grain; arrange over salads. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Yield: 4 servings.
