The Journey of Building a Bold Salad
Sweet and Smoky Baked Pineapple
The first step in this vibrant salad is roasting the pineapple. Baking it with a sprinkle of cinnamon enhances its natural sweetness and adds a caramelized finish that pairs beautifully with the savory components of the dish.
-
Pro Tip: Watch the pineapple carefully—it browns quickly. Bake in small increments to avoid burning.
Sautéed Vegetables for Depth
The combination of red peppers, pumpkin, and corn is where smoky spices like cumin and smoked paprika shine. Sautéed with olive oil, garlic, and fresh cilantro, these veggies add warmth and depth to the salad.
-
Upgrade It: Add a touch of cayenne for a spicy kick or swap Hokkaido pumpkin with sweet potatoes for a twist.
The Salad Base
Fresh greens, tomatoes, parsley, and avocado create the perfect canvas for the bolder flavors. A simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper ties everything together.
-
Plating Tip: Use a wide bowl to create a layered effect, making it easier to showcase the steak and roasted veggies.
The Star of the Dish: Juicy Marbles Filet
Seasoned with a smoky blend of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and mustard powder, the Juicy Marbles filet is cooked to perfection. A quick sear on each side locks in flavor, while the final slicing into strips ensures it integrates seamlessly into the salad.
-
Pro Tip: Let the filet rest for a minute before slicing to preserve its juiciness.
Assembly and Final Touches
Once all components are ready, it’s time to bring them together. The roasted pineapple, sautéed vegetables, and seasoned steak strips are layered over the greens, then topped with roasted nuts and seeds for a delightful crunch.
-
Customization Tip: Adjust salt and pepper at the end to balance the flavors to your liking.
