Season the ribeye steak generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if preferred. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly.
While the steak rests, prepare the salad base. Chop the romaine lettuce, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and peel and slice the cucumber. Combine all the vegetables in a large salad bowl.
Add blue cheese crumbles and croutons to the salad for texture and flavor.
Make the dressing by whisking together the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Slice the rested steak into thin strips and arrange it on top of the salad.
Drizzle the homemade dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Steakhouse Salad!
