Surf and Turf (surf and turf) – popular dishes in the US, Canada, and Australia that combine both meat and seafood. These ingredients aren't simply placed on a plate, but are presented as an interesting, flavorful, and aesthetically pleasing composition. This surf-and-turf salad features beef flank steak, large shrimp, and fingerling potatoes. Everything is grilled (the potatoes are pre-boiled) and arranged in neat, individual rows over a rich bed of mixed salad greens in a vinaigrette. Served unmixed, the salad looks very impressive.
