Triple G’s winning dish – Asian Marinated Skirt Steak & Citrus Arugula Salad

If you didn’t know, I competed and won an episode of Guy’s Grocery Games back in 2016! This asian marinated skirt steak and citrus arugula salad is the dish that I won with! It’s juicy, flavorful, and surprisingly simple to put together. The Asian marinade and salad dressing are packed with an umami flavor that keeps you coming back for more!!

The challenge on the show was to create a lunch dish using a budget and coupons. And I mean who doesn’t love a good steak sandwich/salad for lunch? The best part about it is that it’s sort of like a choose your own adventure. Eat it as a sandwich, eat it as a salad, or even make some rice or potatoes and turn it into a bowl. Either way you have it, it is DELICIOUS!!!

Here’s the recipe:
