Preparation
Cook the steaks
Pat the steaks dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices and S&P. In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the steaks* and cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until cooked as desired (to ensure a consistent temperature throughout, turn over at least twice). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain. Reserve the pan.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, remove the husks from the tomatillos; medium-dice. Quarter the radishes and lime.
Make the salsa
In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the onions, tomatillos, remaining spices and S&P. Sauté, scraping up any browned bits, 2 to 4 min., until beginning to soften. Add the juice of ½ the lime wedges, ¼ cup water (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 4 min., until thickened.
Make the salad
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the vinegar (start with ½), 2 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Add the baby greens and radishes; toss well.
Plate your dish
Divide the steaks and salad between your plates. Top the steaks with the salsa. Garnish with the remaining lime wedges. Bon appétit!
