Ingredients
Total preparation and cooking time: 45 to 50 minutes
Marinating time: 6 hours or overnight
Marinade:
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Salad:
1 beef top round steak, cut 1 inch thick (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 small eggplant, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices
2 large red or yellow bell peppers, cut lengthwise into quarters
1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise in half
1 medium yellow squash, cut lengthwise in half
1/2 cup grape tomato halves
9 cups mixed baby salad greens
Salt and ground black pepper
Shaved Parmesan cheese
Directions
Combine marinade ingredients in small bowl. Place beef steak and 1/2 cup marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn steak to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for salad.
Spray vegetables, except tomatoes, with nonstick cooking spray.
Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Place steak in center of grid over medium, ash-covered coals; arrange vegetables around steak. Grill steak, uncovered, 16 to 18 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, covered, 16 to 19 minutes) for medium-rare (145?F) doneness, turning occasionally. Grill eggplant and bell peppers 12 to 15 minutes; zucchini and yellow squash 8 to 12 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, covered, eggplant 6 to 8 minutes; bell peppers, zucchini and yellow squash 7 to 11 minutes) or until tender, turning occasionally and basting with remaining reserved marinade.
Cut grilled vegetables into 1-inch pieces. Carve steak into thin slices. Toss lettuce, tomatoes and grilled vegetables with remaining 1/2 cup marinade. Divide vegetable mixture between 6 serving plates. Arrange beef steak slices over vegetables. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Sprinkle with cheese, as desired. Serves 6.
