Steak & Strawberry Salad

Who loves a good steak salad?

One of the best recipes I have found online – steak and strawberries. 😍 Such simple ingredients and such gorgeous flavours. Can be ready in 10-15 minutes and is so filling as it takes a while to eat. I’m sure most of you will agree that a nice steak isn’t something you just gobble down. 😌

I am definitely keeping this recipe for when I’m entertaining guests. Only thing I would change is perhaps leave out the walnuts to lower the fat content a little as it’s so easy to sprinkle too many nuts on a dish and by doing so, add around 200kcal to the dish! 😳 

This serving was 633kcal with 42g protein and 46g of fat. 

• 1 beef top sirloin steak (3/4 inch thick and 1 pound)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• SALAD:
• 1 bunch romaine, torn
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, halved
• A handful of thinly sliced red onion
• A tbsp of crumbled blue cheese
• A tsp chopped walnuts, toasted

• Season steak with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add steak; cook 5-7 minutes on each side until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove from pan; let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak into bite-size strips; toss with lime juice.
• On a platter, combine romaine, strawberries and onion; top with steak. Sprinkle with cheese and walnuts. Serve with vinaigrette.
