Ingredients

1 lb sirloin steak
1/3 cup cucumber, chopped
1/3 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1/3 cup red onion, chopped
1 (10 ounce) bag romaine lettuce
1/3 cup blue cheese, crumbled
blackening seasoning
balsamic vinaigrette
crouton (optional)

Directions

1

Heat your grill pan or grill to medium-high heat.
2

Equally distribute the lettuce between 3 or 4 bowls (or 2 if you're feeding big appetites) and top with the chopped veggies and croutons if desired.
3

Sprinkle the steak liberally with the blackening seasoning and place in hot grill pan. Cook 3 minutes per side for medium rare. (The steak I used was about 3/4 inch thick.).
4

Once cooked to desired doneness, let the meat rest a few minutes before slicing into strips. (You may cut it into more bite size pieces but it will not be as pretty.).
5

Place the steak slices on top of each salad. Top the warm meat with the bleu cheese and serve with the balsamic on the side.

ENJOY!
