Steak & Radicchio Caesar

I am all about a steak salad. I grew up with beef straight from the farmer, and am very thankful I can eat more straight from the farmer steaks! When I try to come up with steak recipes on the healthier level, this "might" count as that.
I will say the combination of the items together create one amazing bite.

Ingredients
1 ounce of shaved Parmesan cheese

3 tbs of shredded Parmesan cheese
2 cloves of garlic
1 tbs of Dijon mustard
2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tsp of anchovy paste
1 1/4 kosher salt, divided
3/4 ground pepper, divided
1/3 cup of olive oil
12 ounce sirloin or flank steak
1 small head of romaine
1 head of radicchio
4 cups of arugula
Small red onion
Drained julienned sun dried tomatoes

Directions
Combine shredded Parmesan cheese, garlic, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, anchovy pasta, 1/2 tsp of salt and pepper into blender.
While mixing, pour in olive oil.
Prepare steak to your liking.
Chop up head of romaine, radicchio, arugula and chopped red onion.
Divide salad, top of cut up steak.
Top with shredded cheese and tomatoes.

Changes I Made!
I used a flank steak for my salad, and pan seared it in olive oil.
I was heavy handed with the tomatoes because I feel like they added the hint of sweetness this dish needs.
