GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH AVOCADO-TOMATO SALSA



Grilled Skirt Steak With Avocado-Tomato Salsa image

Living in California, we often see skirt steak available. I found this recipe to be fairly authentic to how they grill it out here. You can use lemon juice, but definitely use the lime juice if you can. The onion is wonderful with this but tends to fall though the grill grates, so have an extra sweet onion sliced thick to grill as well. Allow 2 to 4 hours to marinade. (Time for marinading is included in the cooking time)

Time 2h40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 8 limes)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 onion, thinly sliced (for marinade)
1 large sweet onion (for grilling)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 lbs skirt steaks
12 medium corn tortillas, warmed
1 large tomatoes, peeled and seeded
1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
1 tablespoon red onion
2 tablespoons cilantro
1 jalapeno chile, seeded
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix. Place skirt steak and marinade in a ziplock bag and put in the fridge for 2 to 4 hours.
  • Meanwhile, mix all the salsa ingredients in a bowl, cover and refrigerate.
  • Place oven on 200°F and wrap your tortillas, sealed in foil for about 20 minutes.
  • Prepare your barbecue for medium heat grilling. Remove steak from the marinade and place on the grill for 4 to 6 minutes on each side (medium rare to medium).
  • Slice the sweet onion and place on the grill as well, brushing with the marinade. Grill until still firm, but just turning tender.
  • Place the steak and onions on a carving platter. Slice the steak thinly on the diagonal and serve on a platter with the onion.
  • To eat, place some steak, onion and Avocado-Tomato salsa in a warm tortilla and enjoy!

SEARED TUNA STEAK WITH AVOCADO SALSA



Seared Tuna Steak With Avocado Salsa image

This recipe is from Eddie V's Edgewater Grill in Scottsdale, Arizona. It is the original recipe; however, I make a few slight changes to the recipe (to accomodate my personal tastes) when I make it. First, I add a little soy sauce to the vinaigrette to bring out the flavors a little more. Second, I only use 2 Tbsp. of olive oil (instead of the recommended 4 Tbsp.) because I like a chunkier vinaigrette. Third, I chop the cilantro and sprinkle it on top of the fish and salsa. Either way, it is a great recipe and worth having at least once!

SEARED BEEF WITH TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA



Seared Beef With Tomato-Avocado Salsa image

Seared beef is one of the most popular and simplest of beef preparations in Mexico. Invented in the 1940's by restauranteur Jose Loredo, the dish always features steak that has been sprinkled with lime juice and salt, then quickly seared. Leave out the chile pepper if you don't want the heat. Enjoy!

Time 37m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup avocado, diced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (I omit this, not into cilantro)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 (1 lb) beef tenderloin, trimmed
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pablano chili pepper, seeded and cut into thin strips (wear gloves to prevent irritation)

Steps:

  • To make the salsa, combine the tomatoes, onion, avocado, 1 tablespoon of the lime juice, cilantro, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a serving bowl. Set aside.
  • Cut the beef tenderloin lengthwise (with the grain) into 4 thick slices. Place each slice between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to 1/4 inch thicknes. Rub the beef with the remaining lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned and cooked to your liking, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Transfer the beef to a plate, cover with tin foil to keep warm. Add the pablano pepper, if using, to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Place each piece of beef on a plate and top with one-fourth of the poblano pepper. Serve topped with the salsa.
