How to Make this Blue Cheese Steak Salad With Homemade Croutons and Dressing
-
For the croutons, cut bread into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with seasoning and garlic. Arrange cubes in a single layer on a shallow baking sheet. Bake in preheated 400°F oven 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
-
Meanwhile, for the Blue Cheese Dressing, place all ingredients, except crumbled blue cheese, into a blender container or food processor. Blend until smooth. Add half of the crumbled blue cheese and pulse until smooth. Transfer dressing to a small bowl and gently stir in remaining crumbled blue cheese. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
-
Sprinkle both sides of steak with Seasoning and massage into the meat. Grill over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Let steak stand 5 minutes before cutting across the grain into thin slices.
-
Arrange lettuce on a large serving platter, topping with steak, red onion, avocado, tomatoes, croutons and remaining crumbled blue cheese. Serve with Blue Cheese Dressing.
