With elements of a classic steakhouse dish, M.J. O’Connor’s Steak & Bleu Salad is a complete package. Grilled steak tips are paired with tangy blue cheese and crispy fried shallots to create a flavorful trifecta. The refreshing greens and tomatoes are the perfect complement to the heavier flavors, and even the balsamic dressing enhances the full-steak-dinnerness of the dish.
