Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Ribeye or sirloin steak
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Olive oil (for cooking steak)
- 6 cups Romaine lettuce
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Cucumber, diced
- 1 Avocado, diced
- 2 Hard-boiled eggs, halved
- 1 cup Crumbled blue cheese
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 3 tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1 cup Olive oil (for vinaigrette)
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
Instructions
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
Season the steak on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness.
Transfer the steak to a plate, cover with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
While the steak is resting, prepare the salad base. Chop the romaine lettuce and assemble it on a large platter or salad bowl.
Arrange the cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, diced avocado, hard-boiled eggs, crumbled blue cheese, and crumbled bacon on top of the lettuce in colorful rows or sections.
To make the Dijon vinaigrette, whisk together Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly stream in 1 cup of olive oil while whisking constantly until the dressing is emulsified.
Slice the rested steak into thin strips and place them atop the salad.
Drizzle the Dijon vinaigrette over the salad just before serving, or serve the dressing on the side.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Steak Cobb Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette!
