Thai Beef Salad

Postby Smoking Piney » Sun May 05, 2019 6:31 pm

I decided to go in a slightly different direction for dinner tonight. There was a Thai restaurant (now closed) that I used to frequent and they made a killer beef salad, so I decided to give it a shot.

I started with the marinade that is also reserved and used for the dressing. It's fresh lime juice, fish sauce, Thai red curry paste, canola oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, and planed ginger. The steak is a top round London broil and it marinaded overnight:

I put the steak on the Egg for a hot and fast cook:

While it was cooling off, I assembled the greens - shredded romaine lettuce, thinly sliced shallot, sliced green onion, thinly sliced cucumber, and chiffonade cut fresh basil leaves. I then sliced the steak as thin as I could across the grain:

And....the completed salad :D :

It was really good. The next time I do this, I'm going to use sirloin for more tenderness. The London broil was good, but just a tad chewy.

Great meal, I too make a nice Thai salad as well. Your ingredients sound similar to mine as well. Limes add a nice taste to it. My family won't order it when out as they say mine is so much better. I bet it went down a real treat.

I'd be all over that!

I also feel the same way about flank steak. Too chewy.
