Time: 15 minutes prep plus 10 minutes cooking.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
  • Cooking spray
  • 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, divided
  • 1 tablespoon aged balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 8 cups loosely packed baby greens
  • 3 raspberry jewel pluots, pluots or plums, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese

Directions

  1. Combine pepper, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, rub over both sides of steak.
  2. Heat a large non-skillet over medium-high heat. If not using a non-stick skillet, add cooking spray or butter to pan.
