Instructions

- 2Preheat the grill on high. Place the steak on the grill and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Flip the steak and grill for another 7 to 8 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the steak reaches 140°F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice the steak against the grain.
- 3Place the cabbage, half the mint, half the cilantro, and half the shallots onto a serving platter. Toss the salad with ¼ cup of the dressing. Spread the salad out in an even layer and arrange the steak on top. Sprinkle the salad with the remaining shallots, mint, and cilantro. Drizzle with the remaining dressing and garnish with the peanuts and chili flakes.
