The secret to this grilled beef salad recipe really lies in choosing the right meat! For this recipe I selected a piece of gîte round, ideal for my salad, but don’t hesitate to ask for advice.
Regarding gremolata, I don’t know if you know it, but it’s an Italian parsley that usually accompanies white meats or osso buco. It is made from parsley and garlic to which lemon zest is added. I adapted the recipe a bit by adding a little mint and lime, and combined it with beef.
I can tell you that it is a marvel that you absolutely must try!
Honestly, this grilled beef and gremolata salad recipe is one of my “favorite” recipes because it really highlights the ingredients that make it up, in all simplicity.
