Delicious Greek Islands Steak Salad Recipe from Grill It Quick Cookbook

In summary, a Greek Islands Steak Salad typically includes marinated steak, mixed greens, Kalamata olives, feta cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, and a Greek vinaigrette dressing. It can also be made with different types of protein, such as chicken, shrimp, or tofu, and the steak should be marinated for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for best results. The salad can be made ahead of time by preparing the ingredients and dressing separately and assembling just before serving. It is also gluten-free if a gluten-free marinade and dressing are used, and gluten-free alternatives can be used for the croutons.
