51 Lincoln grills the tomatoes for this salad, but unless you have a screaming-hot grill, this can be tricky. Either way, use beefsteaks, which have an excellent ratio of flesh to seeds.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 Servings

Ingredients

2

garlic cloves

¾

cup vegetable oil

1

cup cilantro leaves with tender stems

cups parsley leaves with tender stems, divided

¾

cup mint leaves, divided

pounds hanger steak, center membrane removed

2

tablespoons sherry vinegar

1

teaspoon fresh lemon juice

1

teaspoon honey

4

tablespoons olive oil, divided

Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

2

fennel bulbs, cored, cut into wedges

2

large tomatoes, cut into wedges

3

ounces feta, cut into 2x½-inch pieces

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Blend garlic, vegetable oil, cilantro, 1 cup parsley, and ½ cup mint in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and add steak. Seal bag, turn to coat, and chill steak 3–12 hours.

    Step 2

    Whisk vinegar, lemon juice, and honey in a small bowl. Gradually drizzle in 2 Tbsp. olive oil, whisking until emulsified. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

    Step 3

    Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade and pat dry; season with salt and pepper. Grill until nicely browned and an instant-read thermometer registers 125° for medium-rare, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest at least 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

    Step 4

    Meanwhile, toss fennel and remaining 2 Tbsp. olive oil in a large bowl; season with salt. Grill fennel on cut sides until charred and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes per side. Return to bowl, drizzle with vinaigrette, and toss to coat. Let cool slightly, then gently toss in tomatoes, feta, and remaining ¼ cup parsley and ¼ cup mint. Serve salad alongside steak.

  • This was ok. I'm not sure I would make this recipe again but I picked up a couple of things that I might re purpose. I didn't think the marinade on the steak added anything. The fennel was too hard to eat in quarters. I did sear the tomatoes which was a good idea. I took the leftover fennel and tomatoes and broke them down into a salad that I mixed with white beans. I'll grill fennel again for other applications and I liked the dressing.
