Tips:
- Ensure the beef is cooked to your preferred level of doneness for the best texture and flavor.
- Blanch the asparagus briefly in boiling water to enhance its vibrant color and retain its crunchiness.
- For a more intense garlic flavor, allow the garlic to sit in the olive oil for a few minutes before using it in the salad.
- Chop the parsley finely to distribute its flavor evenly throughout the salad.
- Add the lemon juice gradually, tasting as you go, to achieve your desired level of tanginess.
- Garnish with additional fresh herbs or a sprinkle of feta cheese for extra flavor.
