Directions

  1. To make the dressing, blend jalapeno, garlic, and ginger in a blender until finely chopped. Add lime juice, cilantro, honey, balsamic, and salt, pulse to blend. With blender running, drizzle in oil until well incorporated.

  2. Preheat oven broiler. Season steak with salt and black pepper, then transfer to a foil-lined baking sheet.

  3. Broil 4 inches from heat until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Let rest about 10 minutes, then thinly slice against the grain.

  4. Stir together corn, bell pepper, red onion, tomato, and jalapeno (if using) in a bowl.

  5. Divide lettuce among 4 plates, drizzle each with about 2 tablespoons dressing. Top with steak slices, then with corn mixture. Sprinkle with feta and garnish with chips.
