This Greek steak salad is one of my favorite quick weeknight dinners because it comes together in under an hour and tastes absolutely restaurant quality. The beauty of this dish is how versatile it is, and honestly, it's pretty budget friendly too. I love using kalamata olives here because they're packed with antioxidants and add such incredible depth of flavor. The combination of crispy greens, tender steak, and creamy feta cheese with that tangy homemade vinaigrette just hits different. Trust me, once you make this, you'll be whipping it up again and again.
