Ingredients
  

Steak Preparation

  • 1.5 lb flank steak
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Caprese Salad

  • Fresh mozzarella cheese
  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Basil leaves
  • Balsamic glaze

Instructions
 

Grilling the Steak

  • Preheat your grill to high heat.
  • Season the flank steak with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
  • Grill the steak for about 6-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting the time for your desired doneness.

Assembling the Salad

  • While the steak is resting, assemble the Caprese salad by slicing the mozzarella and tomatoes, and layering them with fresh basil leaves.
  • Drizzle balsamic glaze over the salad.

Serving

  • Slice the steak against the grain and serve it with the Caprese salad.

Notes

Let the flank steak rest for 5-10 minutes after grilling to keep it juicy. Use fresh ingredients for the Caprese salad for the best flavor. Adjust the balsamic glaze to your taste; you can use more or less depending on how much tang you like. Consider marinating the flank steak for a few hours to add extra flavor, if desired.
