Instructions
Coffee Rubbed Steak
Combine the coffee, brown sugar, salt, pepper, rosemary and fennel seeds in a small bowl.
Brush 1 tbsp olive oil on the flank steak, then rub with the coffee rub.
Heat a grill to medium high heat (approximately 450°F).
Once the grill is heated, add the steak to the grill. Grill for 4 minutes per side.
Remove the steak from the grill and place on a cutting board.
Let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Use a sharp knife or electric knife to thinly slice the steak against the grain.
Salad
In a large bowl, toss the spinach spring mix with the balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
Top the salad with the onions, tomatoes, avocado, goat cheese and grilled, sliced steak.
Notes
Cast Iron Skillet Method:
Instead of a grill, the steak can be cooked on the stove in a cast iron skillet over high heat for 4 minutes per side.
Grilling Times & Temperatures
For a rare steak, cook the steak for 3 minutes per side to an internal temperature for 130°F.
For a medium-rare steak, cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side to an internal temperature of 135°F.
For a medium steak, cook the steak for 6-7 minutes per side to an internal temperature of 145°F.
