- 1/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- 2 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 4 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, romaine)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Marinate the steak by mixing balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the steak and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and grill the corn until charred (10-12 minutes), turning occasionally.
- Remove the corn and grill the marinated steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- While grilling, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled Gorgonzola in a large bowl.
- Once cooked, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain. Cut the grilled corn off the cob into bite-sized pieces.
- Assemble your salad by layering greens, sliced steak, and grilled corn. Drizzle with olive oil mixed with Dijon mustard before serving.
