Directions

  1. Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Pat the striploin dry and season it on all sides with salt and pepper, then set it on a plate.
  3. When the skillet is hot, add a small amount of oil and swirl to coat the bottom; place the steak in the pan and cook until it reaches your preferred doneness, 2–5 minutes per side.
  4. Remove the steak from the skillet and transfer to a clean plate; loosely cover with aluminum foil and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
  5. Rinse and dry the romaine hearts, then tear or chop into bite-sized pieces and place in a medium bowl.
  6. Core the apples, then quarter and thinly slice them; add the slices and the dried cranberries to the bowl with the greens.
  7. Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain, then add it to the salad along with the blue cheese dressing; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine before serving.

Two tips

  • Prep tip: wash and dry the greens and apples ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to assemble.
  • Serving tip: drizzle the salad with a bit of olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt and pepper if you prefer a lighter finish without extra dressing.
