Ingredients

For the Steak Salad

  • 12 ounces cooked sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 large English cucumber, chopped
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup corn kernels, thawed if frozen
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced, optional
  • 4 cups arugula, optional

For the Honey Lime Dressing

  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 jalapeño, finely minced, optional

Instructions

  • Add the olive oil, lime juice, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, pepper and optional minced jalapeño to a small jar. Cover and shake until combined.
  • Chop the cucumber and avocado, halve the tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion and chop the cilantro.
  • If desired, add the corn to a hot skillet and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred.
  • Warm the cooked steak briefly in a skillet, if desired. If using fully cooked sous vide steak, heat only until warmed through.
  • Add the cucumber, tomatoes, corn, avocado, red onion, cilantro and optional arugula to a large bowl.
  • Top with sliced steak, feta and optional jalapeño.
  • Drizzle with honey lime dressing and toss gently. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Easy steak shortcut: Use fully cooked sliced sirloin, such as Cuisine Solutions Sliced Grass-Fed Beef Sirloin from Costco.
  • Other steak options: Flank steak, skirt steak, sirloin, New York strip or leftover grilled steak all work.
  • Without lettuce or greens: Leave out the arugula. Add extra cucumber or tomatoes for additional volume.
  • Blue cheese variation: Replace the feta with crumbled blue cheese.
  • Meal prep: Store the steak, vegetables and dressing separately. Cut the avocado just before serving.
  • Corn: Fresh, frozen or leftover grilled corn all work.
