Ingredients
  • 1 (15-oz.) bag frozen French fries (about 4 c.)
  • ½ tsp. sweet paprika
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 (1½-lb.) flank steak, cut into 2 pieces against the grain
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 large shallot, finely chopped
  • ¼ c. balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 8 oz. English cucumber, halved and thinly sliced
  • 6 oz. baby arugula (about 8 packed c.)
  • 1½ c. grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 oz. crumbled blue cheese (about ½ c.)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425º. On a baking sheet, arrange fries in a single layer.
  2. Bake fries until golden and crisp, about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with paprika; season with salt and carefully toss to combine.
  3. Meanwhile, season steak with 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. In a large cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Cook steak, flipping halfway through, until browned on both sides and medium-rare, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board; tent with foil. Let rest 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, wipe excess oil from skillet, leaving browned bits in bottom of skillet. Add shallot and 1 tablespoon oil and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until shallot softens and is translucent, 1 to 2 minutes.
  5. Add vinegar and cook, scraping browned bits from bottom of pan, until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and pour vinegar mixture into a medium heatproof bowl. Whisk in lemon juice, mustard, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Whisking constantly, slowly pour in remaining 4 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.
  6. Thinly slice steak against the grain. Divide cucumber, arugula, tomato, steak, and fries among plates. Sprinkle with blue cheese and drizzle dressing over.
