Steak salad with tomatoes and goat's cheese

I just love this steak salad recipe. It has become my go-to for fuss-free lunches when I want to impress friends but can’t be bothered to spend too much time cooking. Juicy, cooked-to-perfection steak makes this salad a substantial meal when paired with the sweet, charred tomatoes, creamy goat’s cheese and slices of ripe avocado. Serve with some crusty bread for the ultimate summer meal.

How to make steak salad

Marinate a large steak in olive oil, lemon juice, chopped herbs, garlic, salt and pepper for at least 30 minutes. Cook the steak on a hot grill until done to your preference. Drizzle vine tomatoes with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and cook alongside the steak until blistered and charred.

Remove the steak and tomatoes and allow to rest in a shallow dish for 5 minutes before slicing the steak. Whisk the resting juices of both the steak and tomatoes into a simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Place the steak and tomatoes on a bed of baby greens with chunks of goat’s cheese and slices of avocado. Pour over the dressing and serve.

Ingredients

for the steak

  • 500 g (1lb) rib eye steaks
