Recipe by Alison Roman The next time you're serving a salad, add some herbs. Think of them as you would any other green; toss handfuls of dill, mint, basil, and more into peppery leaves like arugula, mizuna, or mustard greens, all of which are assertive

Ingredients

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced crosswise, separated into rings
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 1 medium eggplant, cut lengthwise into 1" wedges, wedges halved crosswise
  • 2 ears of corn, husked
  • 1 pound hanger or skirt steak
  • 2 cups baby arugula
  • 2 cups (packed) assorted fresh tender herb leaves (such as basil, cilantro, and mint)

Instructions

  1. Toss shallot and vinegar in a small bowl; let sit 5 minutes. Whisk in 1/2 cup oil. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper; set aside.
  2. Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Brush eggplant and corn with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning often, until tender and charred in spots, 10-15 minutes; let cool. Cut kernels from cobs.
  3. Meanwhile, season steak with salt and pepper and grill until medium-rare, 5-7 minutes per side for hanger steak, about 2 minutes per side for skirt steak. Let rest, then thinly slice against the grain.
  4. Toss arugula, herbs, eggplant, corn, steak, and reserved vinaigrette in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
