Meats Recipes -  Thin Steak on a Bed of Hot Leaves Recipe

Ingredients

Serve 4

  • 4 x 175 g/6 oz entrecote steaks

  • 8 tablespoons olive oil

  • 4 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 250 g/8 oz mixed hot salad leaves

  • sea salt and pepper

Method:

  1. Spread out a piece of grease proof paper, place a steak in the middle and cover with another piece of paper.

  2. Using a rolling pin or meat mallet, gently beat the steak until it is at least twice its original size. Repeat with the other steaks.

  3. Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar and seasoning. Pour over the leaves and toss well.

  4. Divide the salad leaves between 4 large plates. Heat a griddle pan or nonstick frying pan until very hot.

  5. Season the steaks on both sides, place on the griddle and flash-cook on both sides just long enough to sear the meat.

  6. Place the steaks on the salad leaves and serve immediately.
