3 tablespoons minced fresh jalapeno
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Salt and pepper to taste
1 lb flank steak, fat trimmed
1 tablespoon butter

Salad Bowls

3 cups mixed greens
1 medium sweet pepper, diced into 1-in cubes
1 medium avocado, diced into 1-in cubes
1-1/2 cups halved cherry tomatoes

Bleu Cheese Dressing

3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/3 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

Carne Asada Steak

In a medium bowl, whisk jalapeno, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste until smooth. Submerge steak in marinade, turning several times until coated. Press a bowl or plate down on steak to ensure it stays submerged in marinade and let marinade in fridge 30 minutes, then remove from fridge to let come to room temperature for an additional 30 minutes.
Remove steak from marinade and pat dry. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil and butter until pan is very hot. Sear steak on both sides, 2-3 minutes on each side until steak reaches your desired doneness. Remove from pan to a cutting board, cover with foil and let rest 10 minutes.

Salad Bowls

Divide mixed greens, pepper, avocado, and cherry tomatoes between several serving bowls. Once steak has rested, thinly slice against the grain and arrange on top of bowls.

Bleu Cheese Dressing

In a small bowl, stir all dressing ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Drizzle dressing over salad bowls and toss to cat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
