Peppercorn Seared Steak Salad
by Chef Aimee Hunter

Ingredients:
4-6 oz. Filet Mignon or Top Sirloin (lean cut)
1 oz. fresh ground black pepper
1 oz. sliced red onion
1 oz. crumbled blue cheese
2 oz. sliced vine-ripened tomato
2 cups arugula and/or spinach
2 Teaspoons balsamic vinegar
Sea salt
Light or no-calorie cooking spray
Directions:
Sprinkle black pepper on a small plate with a little sea salt. Place the meat onto
the plate and coat both sides of the steak.
Bring a small pan to medium-high heat on the stovetop. (you can also choose to grill the steak)
Spray the pan with the cooking spray. When the pan just starts to smoke, gently lay
the steak in the pan on one side. Sear for approximately 1-2 minutes
for medium rare and 2-3 minutes for medium. Flip and repeat with the other side. After reaching
the desired temperature, place the meat on a cutting board to cool just a bit.
In a small bowl, combine the arugula and/or spinach, tomato, onion, blue cheese and balsamic
vinegar (optional). Toss a few times and place in a serving dish.
Slice the steak into thin strips and lay on top of the salad. It is fine if the steak is still slightly warm, as this
will help wilt the greens.
Use more salt and pepper if desired.
