Cook Mode

Ingredients:

  • 2 beef Sirloin Tip Center Steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 8 ounces each)
  • 1 cup reduced-fat salad dressing or vinaigrette (such as non-creamy Caesar dressing, balsamic or red wine vinaigrette), divided

Grill beef, covered, 11 to 13 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 13 to 15 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) doneness, turning occassionally. (Do not overcook steak.) Grill potatoes 13 to 15 minutes (gas grill times remain the same) and squash 7 to 10 minutes (gas grill times remain the same) or until vegetables are tender and lightly browned, turning occasionally and brushing with 2 tablespoons dressing.
  3. Carve steak into thin slices; season with salt, as desired. Cut potatoes and squash into 1-inch pieces. Combine lettuce and vegetables in large bowl. Combine lettuce mixture with remaining dressing; toss evenly to coat. Divide lettuce mixture evenly among four plates. Top with steak slices.
