Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Sirloin steak
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 4 cups Baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
Place the sirloin steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and place it on the grill. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust timing to your desired doneness.
Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
While the steak is resting, prepare the salad by combining baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, and red onion in a large bowl.
Drizzle the salad with balsamic vinegar and toss to coat.
Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the fresh salad on the side.
