Ingredients
  

  • 400 g beef steak (sirloin or flank)
  • 200 g romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 150 g bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 50 g fresh parsley, chopped
  • 20 g sesame seeds (for garnish) optional
  • Additional mixed herbs (for added flavor) optional

Equipment

  • Griddle or frying pan
  • Chef's knife
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Deep serving bowls

Method
 

  1. Prepare the beef: Season the beef steak with salt and pepper. Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium rare, or until your desired doneness, then let it rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Make the dressing: In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Assemble the salad: In a large serving bowl, combine the chopped romaine, sliced bell peppers, and diced avocado.
  4. Slice the beef: Thinly slice the rested beef against the grain and layer it on top of the salad.
  5. Dress the salad: Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped parsley and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Feel free to swap the beef for grilled chicken or tofu for a vegetarian option.
This salad is also a fantastic way to use up any leftover cooked meats.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days, but keep the dressing separate until you're ready to eat to prevent sogginess.
Enjoy your healthy and delicious creation!
