Grilled Steak Salad
- 10 stalks celery (about 1 bunch), cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
- Juice of 2 limes
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon green hot sauce
- 1 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
- 1 bunch watercress, torn (3 to 4 cups)
- 1 1/4 pounds blade steak, about 3/4 inch thick (4 to 6 steaks)
- 2 bunches scallions, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Toss the celery, 1 teaspoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet; roast until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Whisk the mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons olive oil, the lime juice, honey, hot sauce and 1 tablespoon water in a large bowl.
- Add the roasted celery and toss.
- Add the lettuce and watercress but don't toss.
- Heat a large grill pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat.
- Rub the steak with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- When the pan is very hot, add the steak and cook, undisturbed, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Transfer to a cutting board.
- Add the scallions to the pan and cook until charred, about 2 minutes per side.
- Slice the steak against the grain, discarding the tough membrane that runs through the center.
- Add the steak and tomatoes to the bowl with the salad and toss to coat.
- Divide among plates.
