Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Dressing

  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup apricot preserves

For The Salad

  • 8 ounces romaine lettuce, cut into bite size pieces
  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potato, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup whole pecans
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound grilled steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 (14.1-ounce) can whole hearts of palm, drained, cut into halves lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries
  • 1 cup sliced green onions


Instructions

For the Dressing

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and apricot preserves until smooth.
  2. Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.

For the Salad

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.  Grease a shallow 9×13-inch baking sheet.  Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, coat the sweet potatoes with the tablespoon of olive oil, salt and black pepper.  Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and bake for around 45 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly browned.
  3. In a shallow 9×13-inch pan, toss the pecans with the brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon olive oil.  Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the sugar has melted and the pecans are toasted.  Cool completely.
  4. Place the romaine in a large salad bowl.  Top with the grilled steak, roasted sweet potatoes, candied pecans, hearts of palm, sweetened dried cranberries and green onion.
  5. Pour the prepared dressing over the salad.  Toss before serving if desired.
  6. Can be made up to two hours in advance  without tossing, tightly covered in the refrigerator, reserving the dressing to pour over the salad just before serving.


Notes

Here is alternative recipe for Candied Pecans.  If making this salad for Passover, leave out the corn syrup.  

You can use leftover romaine from your Seder meals.

If you have leftover roast, simply thinly slice around a pound and add it to the salad instead of grilled steak (but Mariano’s grilled steak is always the best).
