1 tablespoon red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon minced or crushed garlic 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper TOPPING 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 3 cloves garlic, peeled, minced 1 small onion, peeled, finely chopped 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes 1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves 1/2 cup sliced mixed green and kalamata olives 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese Cut several slits on the fat side of the strip steaks so they don’t curl when grilling. Place the steaks in a plastic bag. In a small bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients. Pour half of the marinade over the steaks in the bag. Seal bag and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate the other half of the marinade. Preheat the grill to mediumhigh. Remove the steaks from the marinade and discard the marinade. Let steaks sit at room tem-

perature while you make the topping. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add the onion and sauté until soft. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, olives and feta, and sauté 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Oil the grill grate. Place the steaks on the grill and grill 5 minutes or until you get good grill marks. If desired, turn on an angle and cook 1-2 minutes to get nice cross-hatch marks. Turn and continue grilling until the steak is cooked to desired degree of doneness. It’s best to have an instantread thermometer. For mediumrare, the internal temperature should range from 125 to 130 degrees. Cover with the topping and drizzle with reserved marinade, if desired.

mustard, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Grind well, then rub the mixture over both sides of the flank steak. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Add the tomatoes and garlic, toss well, then set aside. Divide the arugula between 4 serving plates. Top with the bell pepper and avocado. Crumble a quarter of the goat cheese over each plate of arugula, then sprinkle with dried cranberries. Using an oil-soaked paper towel held with tongs, oil the grill grates.

Add the steak and grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice the steak against the grain, then heap a quarter of it on top of each salad. Spoon a quarter of the tomatoes, as well as any liquid in the bowl, over each salad.
