YIELD: 6 servings

24 oz. flat iron steak
1/2 cup sesame Thai vinaigrette
4 tsp. cilantro leaves, chopped
4 tsp. basil leaves, chopped
4 tsp. mint leaves, chopped

1/2 cup red bell pepper, very fine julienne
1 cup asparagus tips, cut in half
2 tsp. sesame seeds, toasted

1. In a bowl marinate the steak in vinaigrette for 30 minutes. Grill to medium-rare, let rest for 5 minutes prior to slicing.
2. In a bowl, toss the fresh herbs and Thai chili with lettuce, sprouts, peppers, asparagus and sesame seeds with dressing to coat. Plate the salad in a mound in the center of an over size chilled salad/noodle bowl. Slice the steak thin and fan 4 oz. around the salad. The flat iron should be served warm over the chilled salad
3. Garnish with Asian noodle crisp.
