STEAK WITH SPICY PAPAYA-CARROT SALSA
A papaya salsa with fiery Scotch bonnet chiles makes a colorful-and spicy-condiment for grilled steak. The salsa also goes well with grilled fish, particularly snapper. For less heat, seed the chiles before slicing them.

Steps:
- Heat a grill (or grill pan) to medium high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grate for just 4 to 5 seconds). Rub the steaks all over with the oil; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper.
- Grill steaks 1 to 2 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to four plates. Serve with avocado and salsa.
- Bring the water, chayote, and carrots to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add vinegar, chiles, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, partially covered, until chayote and carrots are tender, 20 to 25 minutes, adding papaya after 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Process one-third of mixture in a food processor; return to saucepan, and stir to combine. Season with more salt, if desired. Salsa can be refrigerated up to 2 weeks in an airtight container; let cool completely before storing. Serve cold, at room temperature, or warm (reheat over medium).
