Grilled Steak, Mushroom and Onion
Salad
Very few things go better with steak than mushrooms and onions.
When served on a bed of greens, then drizzled with a tasty dressing,
this combination is ideal when you've worked up a hearty appetite.
For a unique taste, try grilling the radicchio. It will turn brown,
but tastes delicious.

In a small bowl, whisk vinegar with garlic, salt and pepper. Gradually
whisk in olive oil. Set aside.
To grill mushrooms easily, thread them onto skewers. Brush lightly
with oil; then place on greased grill over medium-high heat. Add
steak to grill. Cook for 5 minutes, turning mushrooms frequently
and brushing with oil if necessary; turn steak. Lightly brush green
onions with oil and place on grill; cook for 3 to 5 min. more, turning
onions frequently and brushing lightly with oil if necessary, until
steak is rare or medium rare. Remove steak and vegetables from grill.
Let steak stand about 5 min.; slice thinly on the diagonal.
Meanwhile, tear radicchio and leaf lettuce into bite-size pieces;
arrange on four dinner plates. Slice green onions into 1 in. (2.5
cm) pieces. Arrange green onion, mushrooms and steak on dinner plates
on top of lettuce. Garnish with tomato wedges. Whisk dressing and
drizzle over salad.
