Salads are one of those things that have a hard sell. Never once have I been like, “You know, babe, tonight let’s go out for salads.” And I have a feeling y’all totally understand my sentiments. But, as my tastes have grown, I do find that when I am feeling the pull for something on the healthy end of the spectrum, a salad can be really refreshing while still fueling me through the day.
Add in the word rustic and maybe some artisan bread on the side, and now we are really elevating things. For this particular salad, I had a couple of nice bavette steaks that were calling to be used over some hot coals. The idea of charred romaine came to mind, and I built upon it with fresh charred cherry tomatoes, dollops of mozzarella, and thinly sliced radishes. Adding in the roasted fingerlings to boost the meal this was a perfect salad for even this carnivore.
Serve this easy summer salad with fresh Fruit Kabobs and a cool cider or a beer for a perfect dinner.
And they are often thinner. Bavette steak is popular in other countries like Columbia or France, where it is actually a variety of steaks. In the US it is often cut from the sirloin, for that perfect tender texture. Bavette steak is a perfect small portion in the States perfect for quick dinners like this salad, everyone’s favorite sizzling fajitas or a quick stir-fry.
Plus, it’s bavette, so it’s super fancy. Totes. Try that one on the new dinner date.
