iNSTRUCTIONS

  1. Season the steak with 2 tsp of SIMPLi Peruvian Spice Salt Blend & let sit on the counter for 30 minutes or until it comes to room temperature.
  2. While the steak sits, make the charred scallion lime dressing. In a cast iron over medium-high heat, char scallions & a jalapeno.
  3. To a blender or food processor, add charred scallions & jalapeno, cilantro, garlic cloves, sour cream, olive oil, white wine vinegar, juice of a lime, SIMPLi Peruvian Pink Salt & pepper. You can also use an immersion blender to make the dressing. Dressing will last in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  4. Next, prepare your salad ingredients. Wash & chop tomatoes, red onion & greens.
  5. Remove the kernels off one corn cob & char the kernels in a cast iron over medium-high heat until they have some color. Set them aside.
  6. Keep the cast iron skillet on the stove & lower the heat to medium. Add in 2 tbsp of SIMPLi Extra Virgin Olive Oil Blend & immediately add in the seasoned steak. Cook until desired temperature, flipping halfway through for an even sear.
  7. Once the steak is done cooking, let it rest for 5 minutes, or longer if it’s a thick cut. A general rule of thumb is to let the steak sit for 5 minutes per inch.
  8. Once the steak has rested, slice into strips & assemble salad.
  9. Dress salad with charred scallion lime dressing & enjoy!

Whether cooking on the stovetop or outside on the grill, the key ingredient to any good grilled dish is a cooking oil with a high smoke point - such as our Olive Oil Blend - to ensure balanced, neutral flavors and an overall enjoyable cooking experience. Combining our finest Extra Virgin Olive Oil directly sourced from Sparta, Greece, with a premium High Oleic Sunflower Oil directly sourced from Poltava, Ukraine, our Olive Oil Blend is a versatile and ideal choice for grilling, as well as for sautéing, baking, and broiling, to ensure that your dishes are as flavorful as can be.

Another key ingredient to grilled food? Bold spices! Our Peruvian Spice Salt Blend is the star seasoning for this recipe, sourced directly from the Maras salt mines high up in the Andes mountains in the Sacred Valley of Peru. Whether used as a seasoning, marinade, or topping, this unique blend of spices provides a rich balance of smoky, spicy, and savory notes, infusing the steak and overall dish with a depth of flavor and slight kick that’ll leave your taste buds craving a second (and third and fourth) bite.

Quick to prepare and easy to follow, this recipe makes for a fantastic choice for your next weeknight dinner or weekend patio party. Let’s get grilling!
