Hi....
This is soooooooooo good! I didn't want to spend the extra money for only a couple of tablespoons of steak sauce, so I found a recipe and made my own (recipe included)! I had all of the ingredients on hand....but I only made up 1/4 of the recipe. I also made up my own balsamic vinaigrette (recipe included).
Enjoy!

Greek Islands Steak Salad
Ingredients
1 boneless beef top loin steak (8 ounces)
1 tablespoon A.1. steak sauce
MUSHROOMS:
1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon sherry or chicken broth
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
SALAD:
4 cups torn mixed salad greens
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
2/3 cup thinly sliced cucumber
10 pitted Greek olives
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup prepared balsamic vinaigrette
Directions
Rub steak on both sides with steak sauce; let stand for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute mushrooms in butter until golden brown. Add the sherry, salt and pepper. Cook 1-2 minutes longer or until liquid is evaporated. Set aside and keep warm.
Using long-handled tongs, dip a paper towel in cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill steak, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer
should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°). Let
stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
Divide salad greens between two plates. Top with tomatoes, cucumber, olives, onion, steak and mushrooms. Sprinkle with cheese. Drizzle
with vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
Yield: 2 servings.
