I love Thai food. When ever I have left over steak I make this. I did an extra chuck eye steak just for this. The dressing is what makes this so good!

Dressing:

1 clove garlic, minced
2 Thai chiles diced, I used half a serrano pepper
2 tablespoons very thinly sliced lemongrass I was out so left it out. You can freeze lemon grass. Need to remember next time I make a road trip to Asian store.
1 1⁄2 teaspoons palm sugar, I used Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Calorie-Free Sweetener. Man that stuff good.
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 1⁄2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Crush garlic and chile pepper in mortor. If you don't have one you can use side of a knife to make a paste. Add rest and stir. Set a side.

Make salad. I did not measure but this what I put into it.

Romaine Lettuce
Cucumbers
Cherry Tomatoes
Red Onion thinly sliced
Cilantro with stems
Green Onion

Cut beef thin on a bias and microwave 30 secs. Put into a bowl with salad and pour dressing over it. Give it a good mix and pour on plate. I licked the plate clean it was so good

That's a fantastic looking salad, Brian! I I love Thai flavors, but have to keep the heat down for the grands. Nice work...
