Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) flank steak

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and black pepper, to taste

5 cups mixed salad greens (such as arugula, spinach, and romaine)

1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 ripe avocado, diced

½ cup feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced

¼ cup balsamic vinaigrette

Optional: Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Beef: Start by seasoning the flank steak. Rub one tablespoon of olive oil evenly over the steak and sprinkle with salt and black pepper on both sides. Allow the steak to marinate for about 15 minutes at room temperature to develop flavors.

    Cook the Steak: Preheat a grill or a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the flank steak on the grill or pan. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time according to your preferred doneness. Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness.

      Assemble the Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens with sliced strawberries, diced avocado, crumbled feta cheese, toasted walnut pieces, and thinly sliced red onion. Gently toss the ingredients together to mix.

        Dress the Salad: Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette evenly over the salad. Using tongs, toss the salad gently to ensure all the ingredients are well-coated with the dressing.

          Serve the Salad: Arrange the sliced beef on top of the salad for a beautiful presentation. If desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves for an aromatic touch. Serve immediately for a refreshing and hearty meal!
