Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 grass-fed beef steaks (about 6–8 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, kale)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon crumbled feta cheese
  • Optional: 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to make the marinade.
  2. Place the steaks in a shallow dish and coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. While marinating, mix the greens, cherry tomatoes, and avocado slices in a bowl. Set aside.
  4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Remove steaks from the marinade and allow them to come to room temperature.
  6. Grill steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until preferred doneness (135°F for medium-rare).
  7. Let steaks rest for 5 minutes after cooking to retain juices.
  8. Slice steaks and serve over the prepared salad. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and sprinkle with feta and pine nuts if using.

Notes

Avoid over-marinating the steak to prevent a mushy texture. Let steak rest after grilling to keep it juicy and tender.
