Steakhouse Salad With Black Pepper Dressing

Ingredients

  • 1 1-lb. New York strip steak, 1"–1¼" thick
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. freshly ground pepper, plus more
  • 4 thick-cut slices bacon (about 6 oz.), cut into ¼"-thick pieces
  • 1 garlic clove, finely grated
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 8 oz. radicchio and/or frisée (about 1 medium head of either or ½ head of each), torn into 2" pieces
  • ½ cup crumbled blue cheese, plus more for serving
  • ½ cup thinly sliced chives and/or torn dill, plus more for serving
  • Extra-virgin olive oil (for drizzling)

Instructions

Step 1

Season your 1-pound New York strip steak, about 1 to 1¼ inches thick, generously with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Set it aside to let those flavors meld.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon pieces, stirring frequently, until crispy, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer the cooked bacon to paper towels to drain.

Step 3

Return the reserved steak to the pan and cook, turning every couple of minutes, until it’s deeply browned and reaches 125° for medium-rare. Let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, mix together the grated garlic, sour cream, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and ground pepper. Season the dressing with salt and spread it over a platter.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the bacon, lemon juice, radicchio or frisée, blue cheese, chives, and a pinch of kosher salt. Drizzle with olive oil and toss everything together before transferring to a platter.
