1/2 cup beef or chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth

1 large egg yolk

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 bunch spicy greens (such as arugula or mizuna)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

3 beets, peeled, thinly sliced

Preparation

Aioli:
Step 1
Bring stock to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.

Salad:
Step 3
Preheat oven to 200°F. Prepare grill for medium-high heat (or heat a grill pan over medium-high). Rub steak with cut sides of garlic and 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning several times, until lightly charred and mediumrare (an instant-read thermometer should register 130°F), 14–16 minutes. Transfer to a rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet.
Step 4
Meanwhile, toss scallions on another baking sheet with 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning often, until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to rack with beef and keep warm in oven.
Step 5
Arrange greens on a platter; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with lemon juice and 1 tablespoon oil. Toss beets in a bowl with vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange over greens. Slice steak 1/2" thick; top greens with scallions and meat. Pour any juices over; season with salt. Serve with aioli.
