Steaks and Gnocchi

Ingredients

  • 2 (7 oz) spinach and bacon salad kits, divided
  • Large zip-top bag
  • 1 ½ lb boneless grilling steaks (such as sirloin, flat iron, or ribeye)
  • 16 oz gnocchi
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Steps

    1. Bring water to a boil for gnocchi. Pour dressing from 1 salad kit into zip-top bag. Add steaks (wash hands), seal bag, and knead to coat steaks; let stand to marinate 10 minutes. Cook gnocchi following package instructions; drain.
    2. Preheat large, nonstick sauté pan on medium 2–3 minutes. Place steaks in pan (discard marinade); cook 4–6 minutes on each side until steaks are 125°F (for medium rare; warm red center), 130°F (for medium; warm pink center), or up to 170°F (for well done). Transfer steaks to cutting board and let stand 5–10 minutes before slicing; temperature will rise 5–10°F during this time.
    3. Add oil and gnocchi to same pan; cook and stir 2 minutes. Stir in salad mix, bacon, almonds, and cranberries (from salad kits), salt, and pepper; cook and stir 2–3 minutes until spinach is wilted.
    4. Slice steaks against the grain. Transfer steaks and gnocchi mixture to platter; top with dressing from remaining packet and serve.
