Grilled Balsamic Steak Salad

A bright, easy weeknight showstopper that balances charred steak, sweet corn, tangy balsamic, and creamy Gorgonzola. Perfect for warm evenings and makes great leftovers.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank or skirt steak (about 1 inch thick)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
  • 2 ears corn, husks removed (or 1 cup frozen corn, thawed)
  • 4 cups mixed greens (baby spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
  • 1/3 cup crumbled Gorgonzola (or blue cheese)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season the steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Grill the steak to desired doneness.
  4. In the meantime, roast the corn until slightly charred.
  5. Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  6. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced steak, roasted corn, and Gorgonzola.
  7. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and toss gently to combine.
  8. Serve immediately.

Notes

Let the steak rest for 5–10 minutes for juiciness. Don’t overcook the steak; medium-rare to medium is best. Char the corn well for added sweetness.
