Ingredients:
- 2 (6″ long) day-old French rolls, cut into 1″ square cubes
- 7 T. Olive Tap Tuscan Herb Olive Oil
- 2 T. Olive Tap Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic Vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 T. chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1 T. chopped fresh oregano
- 2 t. salt
- 1 t. coarse grind black pepper
- 4 C. fresh spinach leaves, torn
- 1 (6 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, chopped
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sliced black olives
- 4 boneless strip steaks (1″ thick)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F. Spread bread cubes in single layer on a rimmed cookie sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crisped, about 12-15 minutes. Set aside to cool. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 6 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper until evenly blended. Add spinach, artichoke hearts, onion, olives and bread cubes. Toss gently. Divide salad evenly on 4 serving plates. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add steaks and cook for 5 minutes. Do not move steaks during that time (so that a crust will form on bottom of steaks). Using tongs, turn steaks over. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook for 5 minutes more. Cut each steak crosswise into thin strips. Place evenly atop salad on plates. Drizzle with any remaining pan juices. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
