Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

8 ounces sirloin or filet mignon steak, cut into strips
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Freshly ground pepper
8 ounces shiitake or similar wild mushroom, trimmed, wiped clean and sliced*
Salt
12 ounces fresh spinach leaves, trimmed, rinsed, and patted dry
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 to 3 teaspoons lemon pepper
Salt
4 tablespoons olive oil
Minced fresh herbs, such as dill, chives, basil, or a combination
*White cultivated mushrooms may be substituted and do not need to be cooked.

Steps:

In a bowl combine the steak, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, and pepper. Let marinate 15 minutes. Warm a nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until it is hot. Add the steak, marinade, and salt, and cook, stirring, just until the meat is no longer pink (be careful not to overcook). With a slotted spoon transfer the steak to a plate. Add the remaining oil to the skillet and warm it over moderately high heat until hot. Add the mushrooms and salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes.
In a salad bowl combine the steak, mushrooms along with any pan juices, and spinach leaves, tossing gently to combine.
For the dressing: In a bowl whisk together the vinegar, mustard, lemon pepper, and salt to taste. Add the oil, in a stream, whisking until combined well. Whisk in the herbs. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve with grilled or toasted bread.

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

6 cups fresh spinach, rinsed and dried
½ cup dried cranberries
½ cup walnut halves
1 tomato, sliced
1 pound top round steak, thinly sliced
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper

Steps:

Arrange spinach on a large plate. Sprinkle with cranberries and walnuts, and arrange tomato slices on top. Set aside.
In a non-stick skillet (or a regular skillet coated with non-stick spray) cook steak over medium heat until no pink remains and steak is thoroughly cooked.
Arrange cooked steak over salad. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top, and drizzle with your favorite dressing. Note: I suggest using a light flavored dressing. Citrus dressings taste especially good on this salad!
