Ingredients
– 1 pound flank steak
– Salt and pepper, to taste

– 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
– 1/2 cup fig preserves
– 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
– 8 slider buns
– Fresh arugula or spinach, for garnish
Instructions
Creating Blue Cheese & Fig-Balsamic Steak Sliders is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Steak: Season the flank steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Steak: Add the steak to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
4. Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine fig preserves and balsamic vinegar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. Slice the Steak: Once the steak has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.
6. Assemble the Sliders: Cut the slider buns in half. Place a few slices of steak on the bottom half of each bun. Top with crumbled blue cheese and drizzle with the fig-balsamic glaze.
7. Add Greens: Add a handful of fresh arugula or spinach on top of the cheese for added texture and flavor.
8. Cover the Sliders: Place the top half of the buns on each slider.
9. Serve Immediately: Enjoy the sliders while they’re warm for the best experience.
