Pat dry the skirt steak on all sides.

Season the steak with salt, pepper, and garlic seasoning.

Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill on the grill setting.

Place the steak on the grill and close the lid.

Toast walnuts in a pan with a little oil on medium heat, stirring to prevent burning.

In a large salad bowl, add lettuce, pear, gorgonzola cheese, walnuts, and cranberries.

Prepare the dressing by adding olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and oregano to a jar and shake well.

Remove the steak from the grill after it has a nice sear and tent it with foil to rest.

Chop parsley roughly and add it to a chopper with red pepper, garlic, oregano, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper; pulse until chunky.

Top the salad with half the dressing and mix gently to coat the lettuce.

Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips and serve with chimichurri.
