Ingredients
  • 1 pound steak of choice (I chose flat iron steak)
  • olive oil, kosher salt, pepper
  • 1 cup light mayo
  • 2 Tbsps balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 Tbsp sugar
  • 8 cups chopped lettuce of choice (I chose romaine)
  • 2 small avocados sliced
  • Optional: cheese, croutons, tomatoes, or any other toppings of choice
Instructions

  1. Cook the steak according to one of these methods.

    Grill: Brush the steak with olive oil and season all sides with kosher salt and pepper. Preheat the grill to medium high heat and put the steak on the grill. Grill the steak 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on steak thickness and how you like your steak cooked.

    Skillet: Season the steak with kosher salt and pepper on all sides. Set a skillet over medium high heat. Once hot add the olive oil and the steak. Cook the steak 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on steak thickness and how you like your steak cooked.

  2. As the steak rests, make the dressing by whisking together in a bowl the light mayo, balsamic vinegar, and sugar.

  3. Divide the lettuce evenly between 4 plates or bowls. Slice the steak against the grain and top each salad with some steak, avocado and any other toppings of choice. Top with the light balsamic dressing.
