  • Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 cups salad, 3 ounces steak, 1 cup fries, and 1 tablespoon ketchup)
  • Cook time:20 Minutes
  • Prep time:10 Minutes
  • Total:30 Minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick matchsticks
  • 1 pound sirloin steak
  • Cooking spray
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • 1/2 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 4 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
  • 8 cups chopped Romaine lettuce
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and shredded

Preparation

1. Preheat broiler. Coat sweet potato fries and steak with cooking spray. Place on separate baking sheets, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Place fries and steak in oven for 20 minutes, turning fries once, halfway through. Steak is done when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160° (medium). Fries should be tender and crisp.

2. Combine yogurt, blue cheese, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Toss lettuce, tomato, and carrot together.

3. Cut steak into strips. Arrange the salad evenly on 4 plates and top with steak. Drizzle dressing over salad; serve with sweet potato fries.
