Description

Ingredients

• 2 slices whole grain bread, cut into bite sized cubes
• 1 tbs butter
• 1 red onion, cut in half then into slices
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 lb steak cut of choice (I used a thin chuck shoulder)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 6 cups lettuce mix (or 1 bag prepared lettuce leaves)
• 7 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
• 3 tbs dried cranberries
• 3 tbs feta cheese
• Salad dressing of choice (like a red wine vinaigrette or olive oil and vinegar dressing)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425F. Place bread cubes on a baking sheet and place in the oven and allow to bake until bread is thoroughly crispy (about 15 minutes).
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a saute pan on medium heat. Once melted add sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized (onions become soft and browned), about 10 minutes.
• In a larger saute pan, heat olive oil on medium high heat. Remove any excess fat from the steak and season both sides with salt and pepper. Cook steak to desired temperature. Once cooked, remove from the pan and set on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to soak back into the steak. Then, slice steak thinly and at a slight diagonal.
• Once the bread cubes are toasted, the onions are caramelized, and the steak is cooked and has rested, prepare the salad. Place lettuce on desired serving dish and top with sauteed onions, steak, bread cubes, cherry tomatoes, cranberries, and feta cheese. Toss with desired salad dressing and serve.
