BLACKENED STEAK SALAD
My husband says that this is about as manly as a salad can get. It is fresh, crisp, colorful and loaded with meat. My favorite thing about this salad is the wonderfully contrasting textures as you work your way through it.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the steak strips in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. In a small mixing bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, cayenne pepper, basil, cumin, celery salt and oregano. Sprinkle the seasoning over the top of the steak and toss in the bowl until all the meat is evenly coated. Set aside.
- In a large sauté pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of olive oil and the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic, and sea salt and black pepper to taste. Sauté until the onion is a nice caramel color, about 20 minutes. Add the mushrooms an and sauté until they are soft and have released their liquid, about 10 minutes.
- While the onion is caramelizing, divide the romaine and spinach among 4 plates. Top each plate of lettuce with one quarter of the blue cheese crumbles, tomatoes, orange and yellow bell pepper and avocado. Line each topping in its own individual row.
- Heat the oven on broil. Line the steak strips in a single layer on a broiling pan. Broil on high for 5 minutes, or until the meat has reached the desired level of doneness.
- Divide the cooked steak strips evenly among all 4 plates. Top with the caramelized onion and mushrooms.

BLACKENED STEAK SALAD
This is one of the most requested items on the lunch menu at the Chicago Chop House. Would advise cooking on the grill if you can, as it can be smoky cooking indoors. I sometimes make double the spice, store and use in other recipes, such as chicken, etc...You can use New York Strips, Rib-eyes or whatever steak is on sale at the time. Adapted from Bon Appetit magazine, Sept., 2000.

Steps:
- Trim fat from steak. Cut steak lengthwise in half and then crosswise into 1/4-inch thick strips.
- Combine beef, garlic, oil and pepper. Toss to coat. Heat large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
- Add beef (half at a time) and stir-fry 1-2 minutes or until outside surface is no longer pink. (Do not overcook.) Steak can also be grilled whole then sliced. Leftover steak works great here too!
- Remove from skillet. Season with salt as desired. Note: *To substitute the fully cooked beef strips or leftover steak just heat them up and continue with the next steps*.
- In large bowl, combine beef with lettuce and dressing from salad kit. Toss lightly.
- Sprinkle with croutons from kit and parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Select a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
- Season the steak liberally: Use a generous amount of your favorite steak seasoning to flavor the steak. Be sure to season both sides of the steak.
- Cook the steak over high heat: This will create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for blackened steak include grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, and a simple green salad.
