Ingredients

Scale

STEAK AND MARINADE:

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon dry sherry
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • Two 8– to 12-ounce ribeye, strip or sirloin steaks

CARROT-GINGER DRESSING:

  • 1 medium carrot (about 60 grams), peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 1 shallot (about 45 grams), coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 to 1 tablespoon (about 8 to 15 grams) minced ginger
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons white miso
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons neutral oil (such as grapeseed)

TO ASSEMBLE:

  • 6 to 8 ounces mixed baby greens
  • 4 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. For the steak and marinade: Combine the soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar, garlic and ginger in a small mixing bowl and whisk to thoroughly combine.  Place the steaks in a resealable bag or lidded container and pour the marinade over, ensuring the steak is coated in the marinade.  Marinate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  2. To make the dressing: Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed until as smooth as possible.  Slowly add cool water while blending until your desired consistency is reached.
  3. When ready to grill the steaks: Preheat the grill or a grill pan of medium-high heat.  Remove the steaks from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off.  Pat the steaks dry with paper towels.  Lightly oil the grill pan and put the steaks on.  Cook to your desired degree of doneness, about 3 to 5 minutes per side depending on the thickness of your steak.  Remove the steaks to a plate and allow to rest for at least 10 minutes.  Slice against the grain until thin slices.
  4. Place the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes and green onions on a platter.  Arrange the sliced steak over the top and serve the dressing on the side.
