When you’re hungry and in a hurry, it’s time to think about fast food. No, not the greasy stuff you get at a drive-thru, but home-cooked dinners that come together in a flash.
Steak and salad for dinner is always a treat, and this complete meal couldn’t be any quicker or easier. Be sure to buy whole mushrooms for the recipe — presliced tend to be old.

Test Kitchen Tip
If possible, ask the butcher at your grocery store to cut the steaks so they’re the same size and cook consistently.
Instructions
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a sauté pan over medium-high. Add steaks; cook 3–4minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a plate and tent with foil.
Add 1 Tbsp. oil to pan; heat over medium-high. Add mushrooms and 1 Tbsp. shallots; cook until mushrooms release their moisture, it evaporates, and mushrooms are browned, 3–4minutes. Add balsamic and cook until reduced by half, 2 minutes.
Whisk together white wine vinegar, remaining 1 Tbsp. oil, remaining 1 Tbsp. shallots, and Dijon for the vinaigrette; season with salt and pepper. Toss salad blend with vinaigrette, divide among 4 plates, then top steaks with mushrooms and blue cheese.
