Asian Inspired Beef Salad
Description
This recipe is a combination of a few different recipes. I have adjusted it by using what we love to eat but with a bit of an Asian influence. —ChezUs
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce
- 3 tablespoons unrefined sugar
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons lemongrass, microplaned
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 2 teaspoons serrano chili, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 pound beef sirloin, grass fed preferred
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- kosher salt
- fresh cracked black pepper
- 2 cups red leafed baby romaine
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup basil, roughly chopped
- 1/3 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1/3 cup mint, roughly chopped
- 1/2 red pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 vine ripe tomatoes, cut in quarters
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a small jar and shake until combined. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.
- Rub the beef with sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Combine lettuce, herbs, red onion and red pepper in a salad bowl, toss to combine.
- Heat a stove top grill pan and sear beef until cooked to your liking. We like ours medium rare, which is about 2 - 3 minutes each side depending on thickness of the cut of meat. Slice meat into thin strips.
- Toss the greens with 1/3 of the dressing.
- Divide salad greens onto serving plates. Top with the sliced beef and tomatoes. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the top of each salad.
- Serve. Eat.
