Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 cup radishes thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your grill to high heat while you prepare the steak.
  2. Season the flank steak generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on its thickness.
  4. Let the grilled steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing it against the grain.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the salad greens, tomatoes, radishes, and cilantro.
  6. Whisk together lime juice and olive oil in a small bowl, then drizzle it over the salad.
  7. Top the salad with sliced flank steak and diced avocado just before serving.

Notes

For best flavor, grill the steak until medium-rare. The salad is best served fresh, and any leftovers can be stored in the fridge for a day.
