Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1.5 pounds (680 grams) beef sirloin or flank steak
Vegetables and Greens:
- 4 cups fresh arugula
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Seasonings and Garnish:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Ignite the oven to a scorching 400°F (200°C), preparing for a culinary transformation.
- Lavish the beef with a robust seasoning of salt and pepper, ensuring complete coverage.
- Activate a searing-hot oven-safe skillet with olive oil over medium-high flame, creating the perfect caramelization environment.
- Develop a rich, golden-brown exterior by searing the beef for 2-3 minutes on each side, locking in intense flavors.
- Slide the skillet directly into the preheated oven, roasting for 10-12 minutes to achieve a perfect medium-rare consistency.
- Simultaneously craft a vibrant salad by gently combining peppery arugula, burst-sweet cherry tomatoes, and delicate Parmesan shavings.
- Extract the beef from the oven and allow a crucial 5-minute resting period, enabling juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Artfully slice the beef against the grain into delicate, thin strips to maximize tenderness.
- Elegantly plate by nestling the beef strips atop the prepared arugula salad.
- Elevate the dish with a graceful drizzle of balsamic glaze, adding a final touch of sophisticated flavor complexity.
Notes
- Select high-quality, well-marbled beef like ribeye or sirloin for the most tender and flavorful tagliata.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness, aiming for 130-135°F for medium-rare results.
- Allow the steak to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking to help it cook more evenly.
- Slice the beef against the grain to maximize tenderness and create more delicate, melt-in-your-mouth pieces.
