Fresh Grilled Steak Salad

A wonderful, quick and easy meal you can whip up in no time.

Ingredients:

1 lb / 450 grams Sirloin, T-bone, Porterhouse or Rib Eye Steak about 20
Lettuce
6-8 brown mushrooms
1 medium onion
1 large bell pepper / capsicum
2-3 garlic cloves
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper

Preheat your grill to high if using gas or light your charcoal and let it turn to white ash. While your grill is warming up, cut into long thin strips, the onion and bell peppers and place in a bowl along with a few dashes of olive oil Рmix well. Finely chop the garlic cloves and saut̩ them in a pan with olive oil for about two minutes and set aside. Next, remove the stems from the mushrooms and lightly brush away any visible dirt (do not clean your mushrooms under water as they will absorb the water.)

Once the grill has reached the correct temperature lightly brush some oil on the grill grate and place the mushrooms, onions and bell peppers on the grill over direct heat. Once the mushrooms start to show a little liquid forming on the inside of the caps remove them from the heat and set aside. Grill the onions and bell peppers until the edges start to lightly brown and then return to the bowl, add the garlic to the bowl and mix. Slice up the mushrooms to whatever thickness you like.

Place your steaks onto the grill and season with salt and pepper, cook until medium rare then remove and let rest for about 5 minutes. While your steak is resting pull off some lettuce and placed into a bowl add the rest of the ingredients accept for the steak. Thinly slice your steak into bite size pieces and add to the bowl of lettuce, toss to mix well and enjoy.
