Flatiron Steak Beet Salad

fionn maccool'sToday is St. Patrick's Day, and I want to talk about a really great dish that I have at Fionn MacCool's in Kitchener. They have a live band for St. Pat's and a great environment!

My favourite dish there is the Flatiron Steak Beet Salad. The salad is full of fresh mixed greens, grape tomatoes, onions, peppers. A little bit like a greek salad, but then it has two colours of cooked beets, an orange type and the traditional red-purple beets. It is topped with an oil and vinegar type dressing, and goat cheese feta. Who knew goat cheese was soooo delicious? Love it on so many things these days.

The salad is topped with strips of grilled flatiron steak, cooked medium rare, with spicy seasoning. Really fantastic!!!

We haven't tried this at home yet. Beets have never been cooked in this house, which is too bad, since I think they are really great. I will keep working on Chef Neil whenever I order this, and one day he might break down and cook it.
