Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup corn kernels fresh or frozen
  • 4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese crumbled
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the flank steak with salt and black pepper, then rub with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. Grill the steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  3. While the steak is resting, grill the corn (if using fresh) for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until charred. If using frozen corn, sauté it in a skillet over medium heat until heated through and slightly browned.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, grilled corn, and crumbled Gorgonzola cheese.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil until well combined.
  6. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  7. Top the salad with the sliced steak and serve immediately.
