Ingredients

Servings

dressing

salad

  • 1 lb top sirloin steak or any cut you like

Instructions

  1. Whisk the dressing ingredients together and set aside.
  2. Heat a skillet or grill pan over high heat until very hot. Brush the steak lightly with oil on both sides and grill for about 3 minutes per side for rare, or until it's done the way you like it.
  3. Set the steak on a plate and cover with foil, let it rest for 10 minutes. Then slice it very thinly across the grain with a sharp knife.
  4. Arrange the lettuce across the bottom of a platter. Top with the cucumbers and onion slices, separating the rings as you scatter them around.
  5. Next add the steak and fresh herbs. Scatter the hot pepper rings over the top, along with the peanuts.
  6. Drizzle the dressing liberally over all, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you like, you can marinate the steak in some of the dressing for anywhere from an hour to overnight.  In that case, double the dressing recipe.
  • Don't dress this salad until just before eating, the dressing will wilt the herbs
