Ingredients
 
 

  • 14 ounces steak
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Steak Marinade

  • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 3 garlic cloves grated
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp lime juice

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 4 tbsp lime juice more to taste
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 garlic clove grated
  • 1 red chili pepper more or less to taste, deseeded and finely chopped

Salad

  • 3.5 ounces lettuce leaves
  • 9 ounces cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 red onion thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup cilantro leaves
  • ¼ cup toasted peanuts
  • freshly ground black pepper for serving

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a shallow bowl, add steak and set aside at room temperature. Marinate for 15 minutes, flipping meat occasionally. You can marinate the steak for up to 8 hours, just chill and remove from refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking.
  • In the meantime, thinly slice the red onion, cut the cherry tomatoes in half and thinly slice the cucumber. Deseed and finely chop the chili pepper.
  • Combine the ingredients for the dressing. Stir well and taste, adjust as required in recipe notes. It should be a balance of tangy - sweet - salty with a hint of spiciness.
  • Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium high. Add steak and sear, undisturbed, for 3 minutes. Turn and sear for 3 minutes more. Transfer onto a plate, cover with aluminum foil and let rest for at least 3 minutes. Then cut into thin slices, against the grain.
  • In the meantime, assemble the salad. In a large bowl combine the ingredients, drizzle over most of the dressing and toss. Add steak and serve immediately, drizzled with the remaining dressing and some freshly ground black pepper. Enjoy!
