A delicious steak salad made with sliced mini cucumbers, diced avocado, fresh arugula, and balsamic vinegar and olive oil. SO GOOD!
You ever make one of those salads where you’re like WHOA. That is what this salad did for me. I love fresh arugula so one day I threw some in a bowl. Added some diced avocado and sliced mini cucumbers with a bit of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. And then I made these flavorful steak tips.
I mean… HOLY YUM.
This is the salad of my dreams! And I’m so excited to share this recipe with you today!
First things first, I gotta tell you about these steak tips. I got a package (or two) of grass-fed beef top sirloin from which in case you don’t know, is a service that curates boxes of grass-fed, no-hormone-added, humanely raised beef, chicken, and pork, and delivers it right to your home.
I really love getting my box of grass-fed meats and chicken delivered to me. They always have specials going on, like free bacon or free salmon, you gotta check them out! .
Here’s how I made this delicious avocado cucumber steak salad!
How To Make Avocado Cucumber Steak Salad
- Marinate the steak. In a bowl, toss the sirloin steak tips with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cover and set aside for 20 minutes to marinate. Technically you can marinate these overnight (the longer the better) but it’s not mandatory. You do you.
- Cook the steak tips. In a skillet, heat olive oil at medium-high heat. Add sirloin steak tips and cook until the desired temperature. I cooked mine for 1 minute on each side until a little crust formed (~4 minutes). Transfer to a plate and let them rest while you make the salad.
- Make the salad. In a large bowl, add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the arugula, cucumbers, and avocado and toss to coat. I like to add the dressing ingredients to the bowl first and then the rest of the ingredients on top. One less dish to wash! Divide the steak into two plates and serve with salad. That’s all folks!
