Ingredients

Steak and Marinade

2 lbs skirt or flank steak
4 limes (juiced)
1 1/2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp kosher salt
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp cumin
Half bunch chopped cilantro
Half red onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced

Salad

Mixed greens
1 Avocado
1/4 red onion, sliced thin
1 mango, chopped into bite size pieces
15 oz can black beans, rinsed and drained

Dressing

2 limes (juiced)
pinch salt and pepper
quarter cup olive oil ( to taste you may not need as much)
1 tbsp honey


Mix all marinade ingredients together then place in zip lock bag with meat. Refrigerate overnight. If it's longer that's ok. The lime juice helps to tenderize the meat.

Next day

Heat grill. Remove steak from marinade and cook to your liking. I prefer it medium rare. Let meat rest for at least 5 mins before cutting. Slice meat as thin as you can.

While meat is cooking start building salad. Greens first then layer the other ingredients as you see fit. Dress each salad separately. Layer meat over or on the side of salad.
