Real Thai Steak Salad

Ingredients 0/10

Step 1

Lightly heat your grill to medium-high and give the grates a quick brush with some oil to stop the steak from sticking. Season the flank steak generously with salt and pepper. Grill it for about 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness—aim for around 140°F if you want it medium.

Step 2

While the steak is cooking, whisk together the lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, garlic, and chile-garlic sauce in a bowl. In a separate large bowl, toss the romaine lettuce with the mint, cilantro, and basil. Pour about 6 tablespoons of the lime dressing over the greens and give everything a good mix so the flavors start to meld.

Step 3

Once the steak is done, slice it into thin strips and toss those strips into the remaining lime dressing. Let it sit for a minute or two so the steak soaks up the flavors. Finally, add the steak on top of the dressed greens, give it one last gentle toss, and you’re ready to dig in!
