Also known as a Delmonico steak, rib-eye is a well-marbled and extremely tender cut of beef with a pronounced meaty flavor.

  1. Make salad dressing: In a medium bowl, stir together ¼ teaspoon chili powder, ¼ teaspoon ground coriander, mustard, 2 teaspoons olive oil, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  2. Prepare steak: Rub meat with remaining chili powder and coriander; season with salt and pepper. In a small skillet, heat remaining teaspoon oil over medium-high. Cook steak, turning it over halfway through, until browned and cooked to medium-rare, about 4 minutes.
  3. Assemble: Add lettuce, radishes, and onion to bowl with dressing; toss to coat. Place salad on dinner plate, and top with steak.

Note: You can also use this rub on boneless, skinless chicken breast or a thick cut of salmon or other full-flavored fish; serve over the salad just as you would the steak.
