Ingredients

Scale

For the salad:

1 lb flank steak

4 cups mixed greens

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

2 ears of corn, grilled and kernels removed

1 avocado, sliced

For the balsamic dressing:

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup olive oil

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon honey

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Season the flank steak with salt and pepper. Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

While the steak is resting, grill the corn until charred and tender, about 10 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, remove the kernels from the cob.

In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined.

In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, crumbled Gorgonzola, grilled corn, and avocado slices.

Top the salad with the sliced steak.

Drizzle the balsamic dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Serve immediately.
