Equipment

  • Ziploc Bag
  • Grill

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds sirloin steak
  • 16 ounces Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing 1 bottle, divided
  • 12 cups spring salad mix
  • 8 ounces mozzarella cheese 1 block, cubed
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado sliced

Instructions

  • Place steak in a resealable plastic bag.
  • Add 1 cup balsamic vinaigrette, then seal and shake to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (we like it best marinated overnight).
  • Remove steak from marinade (then discard marinade).
  • Grill steak over medium heat (or broil) until meat reaches desired doneness, about 6-8 minutes per side.
  • While steak is cooking, divide salad greens, mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado over 6 plates. Top with steak once it's finished cooking and serve with remaining balsamic vinaigrette.
