1ish pound SunFed Ranch Flank Steak
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Cobram Estate 100% California Olive Oil, divided
2 tablespoons rosemary, chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic, divided
salt and pepper
1/2 cup chopped figs
1/2 cup Capay Valley Vineyards Viognier
1 tablespoon Island of the Moon Orange Blossom Honey
3 cups mixed baby salad greens
1/4 cup toasted walnuts (local walnut available from the Bulk Department)
1/4 cup Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Co. Bay Blue cheese, crumbled
Combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl. Place the steak in the bowl and rub all over with herby oil. Set aside in the fridge.
In a small bowl, combine honey, remaining garlic, salt and pepper. Set aside. Add figs and wine to a skillet. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until the liquid has reduced by a third, about 3 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Add to the bowl with honey, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place steak in the pan. Cook until desired doneness, about 5-8 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Remove from heat. Rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Assemble salad by tossing greens with toasted walnuts and blue cheese. Top with steak strips and the fig and white wine dressing. Serve with fresh local bread.
