Grilled Steak Salad With Roasted Garlic Buttermilk Dressing
- 2 pounds heel steak, 1 1/2-inches thick (preferably from a grass-fed, pastured cow)
- 1 head garlic, peeled
- extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 bunch green onions, divided
- 4 hearts romaine
- 3 tomatoes
- 1 bunch young carrots
- 1/4 cup rough chopped flat-leaf parsley, divided
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- whole wheat naan (optional)
- Prepare a hot grill.
- Remove steak from refrigerator, sprinkle with sea salt and pepper and set aside.
- Drizzle the garlic cloves with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
- Wrap tightly in a foil packet.
- Trim the roots and tops of the green onions; set aside 4 whole green onions and mince the rest.
- Trim the very top and stem of the romaine hearts, being sure to leave the core intact.
- Core, deseed and quarter the tomatoes.
- Trim all but 1/4-inch of the carrot greens, and then peel and halve carrots.
- Rub all of the vegetables with just a bit of olive oil and sprinkle each with sea salt and pepper.
- When grill is hot enough that you can only hold your hand over it for a few seconds, set the foil packet of garlic over indirect heat and grill for 15 minutes, or until garlic is soft but not at all burnt.
- Next, grill all of the vegetables until each side is nicely browned, but not burnt, about 2 minutes a side.
- Finally, grill the steak, cooking each side for 4 minutes for a medium-rare steak.
- Rest steak for 5-10 minutes, and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- If using naan, halve and grill it for 1 minute on each side.
