6 lb. flat iron steak

as needed, blackening spice

Wipe out pan; heat 2 tsp. oil. Add ½ cup onions and 1 tsp. garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Saute until soft but not browned. Add 6 oz. (about 8 cups) spinach and salt just until spinach starts to wilt. Mound spinach on plate. Carve steak into thin slices. Arrange on top of spinach. Top with 6 potato halves; sprinkle with 1 oz. blue cheese. Serve with blue cheese dressing on the side, if desired.
