Summer Steak Salad
Serves 4
1 flat iron steak
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
½ cup California Red Wine
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon pepper flakes
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup red onion, sliced very thin
1 zucchini, sliced very thin
½ cup thousand island dressing
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat for one minute. Season the steak with the salt and pepper. Add the oil and steak to the hot skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side. Lower heat to medium low and continue to cook until desired doneness.
Add the wine, vinegar and pepper flake and move the steak around pan to coat all sides. Remove the steak to cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
Add the remaining ingredients to a large bowl and toss. Divide the salad on serving plates and top with the sliced steak.
Enjoy with California Red, Frei Brothers Chardonnay, Dales Pale Ale or Leinenkugel’s Summer Ale.
