In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
Place the New York Strip steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well-covered. Marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade and allow excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust to your preferred doneness.
While the steak is grilling, prepare the salad by tossing the baby spinach and cherry tomatoes in a large bowl with balsamic vinegar.
Once the steak is cooked to your preferred doneness, remove it from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve over the prepared spinach and tomato salad.
Enjoy your heart-healthy grilled New York Strip steak!
