Directions
Place steak in large resealable plastic bag. Pour remaining herb dressing over steak; seal bag. Turn bag to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate up to 12 hours. Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Pat steak dry with paper towels.
Preheat a grill pan or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak to pan; cook for 12 to 15 minutes or until steak reaches at least 135 degrees for medium-rare doneness, turning halfway through. Transfer steak to cutting board. Loosely cover with foil; let rest for 10 minutes.
To assemble salad, spread 3 Tbsp. reserved herb dressing on a large platter; arrange heirloom, cocktail and cherry tomatoes, and mozzarella on top of dressing. Thinly slice steak across the grain; arrange on platter next to tomatoes. Drizzle remaining 5 Tbsp. reserved herb dressing on top of steak. Garnish with additional basil leaves and dill, if desired. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper.
