Everything about this salad is magical. From the crispy seared beef–to the crunchy radishes, carrots, and cucumbers. Then texture in wonton strips and peanuts, and drizzle with a splash of ginger lime freshness. When you make it I think your neighbors might peak over the grill to see what smells SO good.
Tip: I used sirloin for my cut of steak. It’s a less tender cut than filet but equally as good when marinated.
