Ingredients
  

Steak Marinade

  • 1 medium sized Lemon juiced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Mariposa Farms Dried Chipolte Peppers crushed / flaked Optional
  • 1 lb skirt steak or flank steak

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 medium shallot minced Optional
  • 1/4 cup fresh Mariposa Farms Basil chopped

Salad

  • 4 cups fresh Mariposa Farms Arugula
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 1-2 ozs goat cheese or blue cheese crumbled

Instructions
 

Marinate and Cook the steak

  • Mix lemon juice with the rest of the marinade ingredients until well blended. Pour marinade on steak in a marinating pan, let sit for at least 1 hour, flipping half way through.
  • Heat the grill to high. Add steak after the grill has reached operating temperature. It should take 4-5 minutes per side for a medium-rare steak. Place on a cutting board, cover with foil to rest for 5-8 minutes before slicing.

Dressing

  • Mix the olive oil, dijon mustard and balsamic vinegar until well blended. Add the shallots and basil, mix thoroughly.

Salad

  • In a large glass bowl, toss the arugula, tomatoes and avocado. Slice and add the steak (be sure to slice the steak across the grain).
  • Pour dressing over the salad and mix well. Garnish with crumbled goat or blue cheese. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper if desired before serving.
