STEP BY STEP
Let’s make it.
- Season the steak with half the salt and pepper. Heat 10 g oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear for about 3–5 minutes per side, checking for at least 145°F (63°C) at the center. Rest for at least 3 minutes. Slice thinly across the grain and retain the juices.
- Spread the cooked food and its juices in a shallow container and refrigerate promptly. Chill until cold throughout, allowing about 90 minutes; a deeper or larger batch can take longer.
- Whisk the remaining oil, mustard, vinegar, parsley and remaining seasoning with the chilled meat juices.
- Arrange romaine, radishes and cold beef on small plates. Spoon over all the dressing and divide into 4 servings.
Kitchen notes
- The total time includes an estimated 90-minute chill. Check that the beef is cold before assembling.
- Keep refrigerated at 40°F (4°C) or below until serving. Refrigerate perishables within 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F (32°C). Serve chilled; do not leave a buffet platter out for longer.
