Flank Steak with Avocado Salsa<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 1 tsp ground cumin\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp salt, divided<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1 (16-oz.) lean flank steak (3\/4- to 1-inch thick)<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1-2 tsp canola oil, for grill grate<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 2 large plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1 large avocado, chopped<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1 cup (120g) English cucumber (about 1\/2 a cucumber), chopped<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1 small jalape\u00f1o, seeded and minced<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1 cup (180g) low-sodium canned black beans, drained and rinsed<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 medium (74g) red onion, diced<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Directions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Sprinkle the cumin and 1\/4 tsp salt evenly over all sides of the steak. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for several hours if preparing ahead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly coat the grates with oil. Grill the steak for 5 to 6 minutes per side to reach ~145\u00b0F (medium), or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.<\/span><\/p>\n

    While the steak rests, combine the tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, red onion, black beans, jalape\u00f1o, cilantro, lime juice, and remaining 1\/4 tsp salt in a medium bowl and gently toss to combine. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and serve topped with the avocado salsa.<\/span><\/p>\n
