Ingredients
1.5 lbs Flank Steak or Ribeye
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
3 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Fresh Oregano, chopped
6 cups Mixed Greens (Romaine and Arugula)
2 cups Heirloom Tomatoes, chopped
1 large Cucumber, sliced
1/2 Red Onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup Kalamata Olives
1/2 cup Feta Cheese, crumbled
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Step 2: Place the steak in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour half of the marinade over it. Reserve the other half for the salad dressing. Let the steak marinate for 30-60 minutes at room temperature.
Step 3: Preheat your grill to high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (135°F for medium-rare).
Step 4: Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.
Step 5: In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and olives.
Step 6: Toss the salad with the reserved dressing, then top with the sliced grilled steak and crumbled feta cheese. Serve immediately.
Notes
Always slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness. If using Ribeye, watch for flare-ups on the grill due to higher fat content.
