Steak Salad with Bacon and Crispy Potatoes
Con Poulos
How to Make It
Step 1
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve the skillet.
Step 2
Add the potatoes to the drippings in the skillet, season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper, and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a second large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook until and instant-read thermometer inserted in each piece register 130ºF, 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.
Step 4
Mix together the blue cheese, sour cream, buttermilk, vinegar, scallion, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Step 5
Divide the lettuce among plates, top with the steak, bacon, and potatoes, and drizzle with the dressing.

My husband and I decided on salad for dinner one night and I came across this in my recipe book full of torn out magazine pages. This salad was absolutely delicious! We followed the steps as written and we wouldn't change a thing! This is definitely a meal we'll make over and over.

This was terrific! I made this using sweet potatoes and couldn't imagine it being better with white also used Emeril Lagasse's flank steak marinade and grilled the steak on the George Foreman griller instead. The whole family loved it although my 9 year old skipped the blue cheese dressing. Thanks for another yummy one Real Simple! I got plenty of my "go-to's" from you!
