A beloved American dish since 1916, this simple yet satisfying side dish or light main course will surely please even your pickiest eaters!
Cut a head of iceberg lettuce into four wedges, discarding any wilted or brown leaves. Wash each wedge with cold water before serving; then, rinse each one again with cold water to get rid of any dirt or grit that may have gotten trapped within the leaf.
Before serving, drizzle each lettuce wedge generously with blue cheese dressing and top off with some bacon crumbles and blue cheese. Serve right away or store in the refrigerator until needed.
If you want to make this salad ahead of time, prepare the ingredients and blue cheese dressing up to one week in advance. The croutons can also be prepared ahead of time and stored airtight in an airtight container for up to one week.
While the steak marinates, prepare the vegetables. For the croutons, toss cubed bread cubes with olive oil and spices; spread on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
Add all remaining ingredients to a food processor bowl and blend until smooth. If desired, stir in some blue cheese crumbles by hand before serving.
This salad features steak, fresh veggies, tart blue cheese, crispy bacon and smoky maple walnuts – all combined to create an amazingly tasty and nutritious dish! If you’re searching for a nutritious recipe that will surely impress your family and guests, this one’s for you!
Korean Potato Salad
Potato salad makes the ideal side dish to accompany a steak dinner. It has an irresistibly light, creamy texture and plenty of crunchy vegetables that complement the soft potato. In this recipe, potatoes are boiled until tender before passing through a ricer before being mixed with carrots, cucumbers, hard-boiled eggs and an apple cider vinegar-mayonnaise dressing for an intensely flavorful meal.
One of the most beloved banchan (side dishes) served at Korean restaurants, it goes perfectly alongside rich grilled meats like Galbi or Bulgogi. Similar to its American counterpart, but with a fresher, more savory taste due to cucumbers and apples.
For this dish, you’ll need a large bowl and either a food processor or handheld blender. Begin by boiling the potatoes until tender then smash them with a fork until smooth. Next, stir in cucumber, sweet corn, minced carrot, diced egg whites (reserving the yolks), mayonnaise, sugar and white ground pepper until everything is combined well.
You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice for some zestiness. Finally, finish by sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
This dish is an easy and quick side to pair with steak, but it could also serve as a great accompaniment for other main courses. Plus, using up leftover potatoes after a big dinner is always beneficial!

Another advantage of this dish is that it can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator for several days, making it a convenient dish to serve when guests come over. Plus, you can take it on-the-go as a filling for sandwiches or wraps!
This salad is the ideal accompaniment to steak, but it can also be used as a delicious side for other main dishes like roast chicken or turkey. It’s an incredibly quick and easy meal that would make an ideal weekend lunch or brunch.
Citrus Pilaf
Lemon rice is an ideal side dish to accompany steak, especially when serving something tangy, spicy or zesty. It pairs perfectly with hummus, eggplant dip or tzatziki sauce as well.
Lemon pilaf can be served as a side dish or part of a Greek mezze platter. It also makes an ideal hearty grain bowl to accompany other dishes like grilled vegetables, roast lamb, and gyros.
Making lemon pilaf is simple – simply add plenty of juice and zest! This essential element will give your dish its vibrant taste, helping it stand out from other meals!
For this dish, you can use any kind of long-grain white rice. We suggest basmati or jasmine for its smoother texture and more delicate flavor.
Once the rice has been lightly toasted in butter and simmered in broth with a generous amount of lemon, you are left with an aromatic pilaf that pairs perfectly with chicken kabobs, beef skewers, and many other Mediterranean-style dishes!
Cooking rice with butter and oil instead of water helps the grain release its unique nutty flavor. Chicken broth or vegetable stock adds even more depth of flavor, helping the grains absorb all the juices present.
