Flank Steak Salad with Chimichurri Dressing

This vibrant flank steak salad with chimichurri dressing is a sophisticated yet simple dish that brings together bold, punchy flavours and fresh ingredients.

It is a wonderful choice for those looking for a high-protein, low-carbohydrate meal that does not compromise on satisfaction.

As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this salad focuses on lean protein and heart-healthy fats from the olive oil. It is an ideal summer sharing platter for an alfresco lunch or a quick evening meal that feels truly indulgent. For the best results, ensure you slice the steak thinly against the grain to guarantee every bite is tender and succulent.
