Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced

  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves chopped
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce

Method
 

  1. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Rub the flank steak with vegetable oil, salt, and black pepper.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and mint.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and chili flakes until the sugar is dissolved.
  5. Add the sliced beef to the salad mixture and pour the dressing over the top. Toss gently to combine.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
