Recipe : Beef 'N' Black-Eyed Pea Salad

Ingredients
2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
12 ounces boneless beef sirloin steak
8 cups torn romaine
1 (15.5 ounce) can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1 large sweet red pepper, julienned
1/2 cup sliced ripe olives
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
2 green onions, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro or parsley
3 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions
Combine garlic and chili powder; rub over both sides of steak. If grilling the steak, coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray before starting the grill. Grill steak, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145 degrees F; medium, 160 degrees F; well-done 170 degrees F).
When cool enough to handle, slice meat across the grain into thin strips; place in a large bowl. Add the romaine, peas, red pepper, olives, chilies, onions and cilantro. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over salad and toss to coat.
