Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon chili paste with garlic
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 2 (12-ounce) filet mignons
- Freshly ground pepper
Directions
Whisk soy sauce, lime juice, chile paste, and peanut oil together in a small baking dish. Add the steaks, turn to coat, cover, and let marinate for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before grilling.
Heat grill to high. Remove steaks from marinade and pat dry. Season both sides with pepper and grill for 3 minutes per side or until slightly charred and cooked to medium-rare doneness. Remove from the grill, let rest 5 minutes, and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Salad:
- 1 head Bibb lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
- 3 cups mizuna leaves, torn into bite-size pieces
- 1/4 cup chiffonade Thai basil or regular basil, optional
- 1/2 English cucumber, halved and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices
- 2 carrots, julienned
- 5 radishes, thinly sliced
- 8 each yellow and red cherry tomatoes, halved
- Ginger Lime Dressing, recipe follows
- Salt and ground black pepper
While steak is resting, combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl. Toss with half of the dressing and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter, top with the steak, and drizzle the remaining dressing over the top.
Ginger-Lime Dressing:
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon finely diced shallot
- 1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons peanut oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
Whisk ingredients together in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Let sit 10 minutes before using.

This was a perfect recipe to start the summer grilling with! My husband and I followed it all, putting the exact amounts in and it came out GREAT! Also, following a strict diet and this was a great lean and green meal! We are going to try it on chicken next time!
