Ingredients
  

  • ½ pound skirt steak trimmed
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cracked black pepper
  • 4 cups lettuce
  • 1 carrot shredded
  • ½ seedless cucumber thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup snow peas halved
  • ⅓ cup wasabi peas
For the vinaigrette
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 Tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 2 teaspoon minced ginger

Equipment

Directions
 

  1. Rub the steak lightly with the olive oil, then coat it with the coriander, salt and pepper and leave it for at least 5 minutes.
  2. While the steak sits, put the lettuce and carrot in a serving dish, add the cucumber and snow peas, and toss.
  3. Cut the steak into 1-inch pieces. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat, add the steak, and cook for 5-7 minutes, until browned and done the way you like it.
  4. While the steak cooks, shake all the dressing ingredients together in a jar with a lid until blended.
  5. Put the steak and wasabi peas on top of the salad, pour on the dressing, and serve right away.
