Ingredients

• 1 lb. beef top sirloin steak, cut 1-inch thick
• 1 large head red leaf lettuce
• 4 ounces peppered or regular Feta cheese
• 1/2 cup pecan pieces
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1/4-1/2 cup prepared horseradish
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Season steak as desired. Grill over medium coals 15-18 minutes for medium-rare (140°F) to medium (160°F), turning once. Let stand 5 minutes before carving.

Meanwhile, wash and dry lettuce. Tear into bite size pieces and place on a large platter. Crumble Feta cheese over lettuce.

With a wire whisk, combine sour cream, horseradish, sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper.

Holding the knife at an angle, carve steak across the grain into thin slices.

Arrange steak slices on top of lettuce. Drizzle dressing over entire platter and sprinkle with pecans.

Suggestions

You may use low fat or nonfat sour cream in the dressing if desired. Tomatoes make a nice garnish for this salad.
