Ingredients

  • 12-ounce New York strip steak
  • 2 peaches, halved and pitted
  • 4 cups mesclun greens (avoid radicchio)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 3 tablespoons chiffonade basil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped tarragon

Directions

Pat-dry the steak, season with salt and pepper, and place in a shallow glass pan. Pour 2 cups rosemary oil over steak, cover, and refrigerate for several hours. Turn the steak occasionally to coat both sides. Allow steak to come back to room temperature before grilling. Reserve 1/4 cup oil. Place a ridged grill pan over moderately high heat until very hot. Season the steak again and grill steak about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove steak to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes before cutting in slices.

Brush the flesh of the peaches with remaining rosemary oil. Place cut side face down on the hot grill pan for 3 minutes. Turn over and grill the other side just for 1 minute to soften. Remove and slice peaches into wedges. Toss the greens and herbs together and divide among plates. Fan the steak slices and peach wedges on top. Drizzle the dressing over steak and peach salad, garnish with remaining 1/4 pound crumbled blue cheese. Season with freshly cracked black pepper and serve.

Rosemary Infused Olive Oil:

To prepare the rosemary infused olive oil: Warm oil and rosemary over low heat in a small saucepan. Allow to steep for 8 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing:

  • 1/2 pound crumbled blue cheese, plus 1/4 pound for garnish
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • Pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon minced chives

To prepare the creamy blue cheese dressing: Whisk together 1/2 pound blue cheese with sour cream, lemon, vinegar and cayenne until smooth. Fold in chives, cover, and chill until ready to serve.

    This has become a summer favorite. The flavors meld together perfectly. Who would have thought basting grilled peaches with rosemary flavoring would taste so good! The blue cheese dressing is a favorite of my nephew's - he asks me to make this recipe every year at our family's Oregon beach house weekend. And this is so simple to make, it's the perfect dish for a weekend at the beach!

    I liked this salad and will probably make it once a year when peaches are in season. I took other reviewers advice and grilled the peach longer (which I liked and used less blue cheese. I put in 3 ounces of blue cheese, instead of 8, which seemed about right to me. Otherwise, it might have overpowered the other ingredients.
