Spicy Thai Beef Salad (Yam Nuea)

Ingredients

• 1 lb Beef Sirloin Steak
• 6 cups Mixed Greens
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 2 medium Tomato
• 1/2 medium Red Onion
• 1/2 cup Cilantro
• 1/4 cup Mint
• 3 tbsp Lime Juice
• 3 tbsp Fish Sauce
• 1 tbsp Sugar
• 1 small Red Chili
• 2 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds

Instructions

1. 1In a medium bowl, combine the 1 lb Beef Sirloin Steak, 3 tbsp Lime Juice, 3 tbsp Fish Sauce, and 1 tbsp Sugar. Let this marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. 2Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated 1 lb Beef Sirloin Steak for 4-6 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Remove the beef from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. After resting, slice the beef thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
3. 3While the beef is resting, prepare the salad base. In a large bowl, combine the 6 cups Mixed Greens, 1 medium Cucumber (sliced), 2 medium Tomato (chopped), 1/2 medium Red Onion (thinly sliced), 1/2 cup Cilantro (chopped), and 1/4 cup Mint (chopped).
4. 4Prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 3 tbsp Lime Juice, 3 tbsp Fish Sauce, 1 tbsp Sugar, and 1 small Red Chili (finely minced).
5. 5Add the sliced beef to the large bowl with the salad ingredients.
6. 6Pour the prepared dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the ingredients.
7. 7Sprinkle the 2 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds over the top of the salad just before serving.
