I wrote “salad’ on the title, because of the large number of veggies, but the steak is the star and makes this dish a healthy and hearty main-course. You may serve individual portions or throw everything on a shallow platter to feed a crowd. Serve it warm or cold as part of a fantastic summer dinner or an Asian inspired lunch.

 Ingredients for the Steaks

  • About 800 grams (4 steaks) Black Angus fillet steaks
  • 3 Tbs Kikkoman soy sauce
  • 2 Tbs Minerva organic extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 Tbs honey*
  • 2 Tbs dry white wine*
  • Maldon black pepper

For the dressing

  • 4 Tbs Sweet Chili Sauce
  • 1 Tbs Kikkoman soy sauce
  • 2 tsp Ardo already chopped ginger
  • 1 tsp Ardo already chopped chili
  • 2 limes, zest and juice*

For the salad

  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved*
  • 1 cucumber, sliced*
  • 4 radishes, sliced*
  • 1 red onion, sliced*
  • 1 cup fresh coriander, chopped*
  • 2 Tbs pomegranate seeds*
  • 10 mint leaves*

Method:

Transfer steaks in a zip-lock bag. To make the marinade, mix soy sauce, olive oil, honey and wine in a small bowl. Add a few grinds of black pepper and mix to combine.

Pour marinade in zip-lock bag, over steaks. Close the bag and let the steaks marinade for 1-2 hours.

Make the dressing by combing all dressing ingredients together in a jar or a bowl. Shake jar or whisk to combine. Set aside until needed.

Turn on the grill to high. Remove steaks from the marinade and place on the hot grill. Cook 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting with the marinade.

Transfer the steaks on a rimmed platter. Cover with foil and let cake stand for 10-20 minutes. Do not attempt to slice the steaks as they come out of the grill. This will cause all the juices to escape. Standing time is essential.

Slice steaks and put in a bowl.

Mix with ½ of the dressing.

Spread the veggies for the salad on a large platter. For individual portions divide veggies on 4 plates. Place sliced steaks on the bed of veggies. Drizzle with the remaining dressing. Serve at once.
