Ingredients

Steak Marinade:

  • 1 Ribeye Steak
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 ½ tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon coconut palm sugar - alternatively use brown sugar

Salad Dressing:

  • 1 small garlic clove
  • 1 red serrano chili, or Thai chili , finely minced (reserve some for garnish)
  • 2 tablespoon coconut palm sugar
  • 3 tablespoon lime juice - about 1 lime
  • 1 ½ tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil , sunflower, or canola

For the Salad:

  • 2 cups mixed greens
  • ½ cup cilantro leaves
  • 2 sprigs of fresh mint leaves
  • 1 small carrot - julienned
  • ¼ red red onion - thinly sliced
  • 1 beefy tomato , alternatively use ½ cup cocktail tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup cucumber - sliced (about half of English Cucumber)

Instructions

  • 1. Prepare the marinade by mixing minced garlic, soy sauce, worcestishire sauce, and coconut sugar together. Season the steak well on both sides with salt and pepper. Pour marinade over the steak and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
    2. Arrange mixed salad greens, cilantro, and chopped mint on a salad platter. Slice the onion, julienne the carrot, slice the tomato, and the cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Add to the salad.
    3. Make the salad dressing by combining minced garlic, chili to your liking (reserving some for garnish), coconut sugar, lime juice, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and vegetable oil. Set aside.
    4. Heat a heavy bottom-cast iron pan on medium-high heat. Add a little oil or butter, then add the steak when the pan is nice and hot. Depending on the preference of your steak doneness, typically a medium-rare steak is used for a Thai salad. Roast steak for about 5 minutes on each side. Don't forget to brown the sides as well. Remove steak from the pan, cover with foil, and allow to stand for about 5 minutes before slicing.
    Arrange steak slices over the salad. Pour the dressing all over. Garnish the salad with a handfull scallions, and some chili slices. Enjoy!
