Ingredients

  • 5 ⅓ tablespoons light honey mustard dressing that's 5 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon (I used Ken’s Lite Honey Mustard)
  • 8 teaspoons poppyseed dressing (I used Panera Bread at Home brand)
  • ¼ teaspoon celery salt
  • 8 oz frozen straight cut fries (frozen weight)
  • 1 lb uncooked lean, trimmed flank steak cut into thin strips
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
  • 12 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup chopped cucumbers
  • ½ cup shredded 2% milk sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, stir together the honey mustard, poppyseed dressing, and celery salt to make the dressing and set aside to let the flavors combine.
  • Cook the frozen French fries according to package instructions. I made mine in the air fryer while I cooked the steak!
  • Place the steak strips into a mixing bowl and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon each of the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Stir until the steak is coated with the seasoning.
  • Bring one tablespoon of oil to medium heat in a large skillet. Add the seasoned steak strips and stir to coat with the oil. Cook, stirring/flipping occasionally, for 5-6 minutes until the steak is cooked to taste.
  • When ready to serve, place the dressing in the microwave and heat on high for 15-20 seconds or until warm and stir.
  • To build each salad*, place 3 cups of lettuce into a bowl and top with ¼ cup of tomatoes, ¼ cup of cucumbers, and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar. Drizzle each salad with two tablespoons of the warm riviera dressing. Top each salad with ¼ of the steak (for me this was about 2.8 ounces cooked) and ¼ of the French fries (about 1.4 ounces for me) and serve.
    *Build each salad to serve! If you’re only serving one or two salads at a time, I’d recommend only cooking the amount of French fries you’ll need (each salad gets 2 oz frozen weight) and only dress the ones you’re serving. Store the leftover components (steak, dressing, cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese) separately in the fridge until you’re ready to use.
