Gluten Free Salad with Steak

Kayla Cappiello
My 20-minute Gluten Free Salad with steak is my favorite go to when I need a big dose of fresh vegetables and protein. It is loaded with crunchy veggies, creamy cheese, charred corn and grilled steak, tossed together with a homemade balsamic dressing. Truly it is always a crowd-pleaser! It is perfect to bring to a summer bbq, cookouts or when you need a light dinner heavy on the protein!
This gluten free salad is a good-for-you combination of crispy green lettuce, crunchy fresh vegetables, and a simple homemade salad dressing. It takes 20 minutes to make and the end result is fresh, colorful, and SUPER satisfying.

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz Sirloin steak
  • 1 1/2 cup Corn
  • 2 cups lettuce chopped
  • 1 tomato chopped
  • 1/4 cup gorgonzola or dairy free feta
  • 6 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 6 tbsp balsamic vinegar divided
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 2 tsp garlic powder divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine the steak with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) in the refrigerator.
  • Grill the Steak: Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Grill the steak for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
  • Option to grill or char the corn: Grill corn on the cob until the corn is charred. Cut corn off the cob and set aside. OR add corn kernals to a cast iron pan. Cook on high heat until kernals are charred.
  • Prepare the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, corn, and tomato.
  • Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and the juice of 1 lemon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble and Serve: Add the sliced steak to the salad. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Crumble the Gorgonzola cheese on top. Serve immediately.
