Egg and Steak Potato Salad with Pecorino Cheese

About this recipe

This hearty salad combines grilled steak, hard-boiled eggs, and tender potatoes, topped with tangy Pecorino cheese and tossed in a delicious Dijon vinaigrette. Easy to prepare and perfect for a satisfying meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb steak
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 medium potatoes
  • 1/2 cup grated Pecorino cheese
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the grill or a pan over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill or sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let it rest before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and cut into bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Place the eggs in a pot of cold water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 9-10 minutes. Cool under cold running water and peel. Cut into quarters.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper to form a dressing.

  6. 6

    In a large serving bowl, combine the sliced steak, potatoes, eggs, and Pecorino cheese.

  7. 7

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  8. 8

    Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Chef's tip

For added crispness, consider adding fried onions or topping with a handful of arugula.
