Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Make the dressing: Pulse garlic, jalapeño, and ginger in a blender until finely chopped. Add lime juice, cilantro, honey, balsamic vinegar, and salt; pulse to blend. Turn the blender on; pour in oil in a slow, steady stream. Blend until dressing is smooth.
Step 2
Set an oven rack about 4 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Step 3
Make the salad: Season steak with salt and black pepper, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Broil in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Step 5
While the steak is cooking, stir together corn, bell pepper, onion, tomato, and jalapeño in a bowl.
Step 6
Remove steak from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Thinly slice steak against the grain.
Step 7
Divide lettuce among 4 plates. Drizzle dressing over top, then top with steak slices and corn mixture. Sprinkle with feta and serve with tortilla chips.
