  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp oregano, dried
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • ½ tsp Kosher salt

For the Salad:

Instructions:

Marinate the Steak:

  1. Whisk together olive oil, garlic, oregano, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  2. Place the steak in a large plastic baggie or baking dish, pour the marinade over it, ensuring it's fully coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Marinate the Cheese and Prepping the Salad:

  1. Mix feta cheese with olive oil, vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Chill in the fridge.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix parsley, tomatoes, cucumbers, capers, olives, and red onion. Cover and set aside.

Cook the Steak:

  1. Preheat a medium-high grill.
  2. Remove steak from marinade and grill for about 5 minutes per side, until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (medium).
  3. Let it rest on a cutting board, tented with foil, for 10 minutes. Slice against the grain into bite-sized strips.

Assemble the Salad:

  1. Mix the marinated cheese with cucumber salad and chopped romaine.
  2. Transfer to a serving platter and place sliced steak on top. Serve immediately.
