Cookware
chef's knife · cutting board · grill pan, outdoor grill, or skillet · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · salad spinner (optional) · tongs · whisk or fork
Directions
- Whisk together vinegar, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; reserve half in a separate small bowl.
- Coat the steak with the remaining sauce in the bowl.
- Warm a grill pan, outdoor grill, or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Wash, core, and slice the pear into thin wedges; peel and thinly slice the red onion into half-moons.
- Lightly oil the grill or skillet, then arrange the pear and onion. Cook until lightly browned and tender, about 2–3 minutes per side; transfer to a large bowl.
- Cook the steak in the same pan until it reaches your preferred level of doneness, about 2–5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and loosely tent with foil to rest.
- Wash and dry the arugula; add it to the bowl with the pear and onion and toss to combine.
- Crumble the goat cheese over the salad components.
- To serve, place the rested steak atop the salad, sprinkle with goat cheese, and drizzle with the reserved sauce from the small bowl.
Two tips
- Make the sauce ahead and refrigerate; rewarm briefly before serving.
- Store leftovers separately: keep the steak and salad in covered containers and reassemble at serving time.
