Hank, there IS no Safari.plist.

I go from ... com.apple.RegLogicStudio.plist
... to ... com.apple.security.systemidentities.plist

Even if Safari.plist WAS there, no amateur [like me] would DARE fiddle with it.

I am new to Apple, and am very disappointed at the lack of a delete facility in the search box. Very short sighted.

To delete search items you need to edit the preference file for Safari ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Look for the RecentSearchStrings tag in the xml and you can delete any/all items.

Didn't work for me. How come some users have had success while others have not?
Thank you.
