Steps:
- Fill a small cup or bowl with hot water (as hot as your sink water will get is fine). Place the uncracked egg in the hot water and let soak for 2-3 minutes so that it gets to room temperature.
- Crack the room temp egg into a food processor or blender with 1/4 cup of the safflower seed oil. Blend until just combined.
- Turn your food processor or blender on and keep that blending as you VERY SLOWLY pour in the remaining 3/4 cup of safflower oil. When I say slowly pour, just keep a constant flow going as slow as you can possibly go. The slower you pour, the thicker. If you pour too quickly, it will not emulsify. When this process is finished, it should look like mayo.
- Add the remaining dressing ingredients to the food processor (lime zest, garlic, lime juice, apple cider vinegar, cilantro, salt and pepper). Blend until smooth. Set aside or refrigerate until ready to use.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. (If you are having a hard time slicing it thin, pop it in the freezer for 15 minutes, then slice it. This makes it easier to handle).
- Place the sliced steak in a bowl or large ziplock bag with all of the "for the steak" ingredients (oil and spices). Toss to coat. Let marinate at room temp for 15-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, Place the sliced bell peppers and onions in a separate bowl, drizzle with 2 tbsp. avo oil and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. When hot, add the steak and marinade and spread so that it in one layer (if possible) sear on the first side until golden brown, toss and continue to sear until all sides of the steak have a golden-brown crust (about 10 minutes total).
- Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer steak to a bowl and cover with foil and let rest.
- Meanwhile, place the onions and bell peppers into the same skillet (with all of the leftover juice from cooking the steak) and saute until tender, about 7 minutes. Be sure to scrape up all the yummy brown bits from the steak while you're sautéing these!
- Divide lettuce amongst 4 bowls. Top with sliced avocado, steak, and sauteed onions and pepper. Drizzle with the creamy cilantro dressing. Serve with more fresh cilantro on top and a wedge of lime (optional).

Steps:
- To make the cilantro lime dressing, combine cilantro, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, lime juice and salt in the bowl of a food processor. With the motor running, add olive oil and vinegar in a slow stream until emulsified; set aside. To make the steak, whisk together olive oil, garlic, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, oregano and onion powder in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper, to taste. In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine steak and marinade; marinate for at least 30 minutes, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the steak from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a grill pan over medium high heat. Working in batches, cook steak, flipping once, to preferred temperature, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove from heat and let rest for 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain. Add onion to the skillet, and cook, stirring often, until onions have become translucent and slightly caramelized, about 7-8 minutes; set aside. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet. Add bell peppers, and cook, stirring often, until soft and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes; set aside. To assemble the salad, place romaine lettuce in a large bowl; top with arranged rows of onion, peppers, steak and avocado. Serve immediately with cilantro lime dressing.

Steps:
- Make the dressing. In a food processor or blender, combine the avocado, lime zest, lime juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic, cilantro, olive oil, and salt. Blend until creamy. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Stir to combine. Rub entire mixture (it will seem like a lot) all over the flank steak, pressing to adhere.
- Heat a large skillet (I used cast iron) over medium-high heat with one tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the steak and sear for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness and how rare you like it. Once cooked to your liking, set aside to rest.
- Carefully wipe out the pan with paper towels, and add remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the peppers and onions and sauté for 5-6 minutes or until tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Once steak has rested, thinly slice against the grain.
- To assemble the salads, top the romaine with the peppers and onions, slices of steak, the dressing, sliced avocado, extra chopped cilantro, lime wedges, and a couple warm tortillas. Enjoy!

FAJITA STEAK SALAD WITH CILANTRO-LIME VINAIGRETTE
Two of the all-time greats-steak fajitas and steak salad-come together in an explosion of flavor. Top round steak (often labeled as London broil) is an inexpensive cut that holds up to a powerful marinade and high-intensity cooking while easily feeding a crowd. The cilantro-lime vinaigrette also pulls no punches, beautifully dressing the salad and perfectly coating charred peppers and onions. A little pepper jack cheese, some fresh avocado and a healthy sprinkle of tortilla strips make this salad one big party on a plate!

Steps:
- For the steak: Set a large resealable plastic bag in a medium saucepan and pull the edges of the bag over the sides of the pan for easy access to the bag. Add the vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, oregano, paprika, lemon juice, garlic, scallion, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the bag and whisk to combine. Add the London broil and seal the bag tightly. Remove the bag from the pan and use your hands to rotate the meat, coating thoroughly in the marinade. Lay the bag flat on a cutting board and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, flipping the bag after 30 minutes. (The seasoned meat can also be stored in the refrigerator overnight. Let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.)
- Remove the steak from the bag and discard any stuck-on garlic cloves and scallion. Set a grill pan over high heat until just starting to smoke, about 3 minutes. (Or prepare a grill for high heat.) Lightly oil the pan. Place the steak in the center of the pan and grill until the bottom is nicely charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the steak and continue grilling until an insert-read thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steak registers between 120 and 125 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes more. Transfer the steak to the cutting board and rest for 10 minutes.
- For the vinaigrette: While the steak rests, whisk the cilantro, olive oil, cumin, lime zest and juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Pour half of the vinaigrette into a small bowl and set aside.
- For the salad: Add the bell peppers and onions to the large bowl of vinaigrette and toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange the onions cut-side down and the peppers skin--side down on the same grill pan over high heat and grill until deeply charred, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the same cutting board as the steak.
- Add the remaining vinaigrette back to the large bowl. Add grated cheese and salad greens and toss to combine. Arrange the salad mixture on a large serving platter. Top with the grilled peppers.
- Cut the roots off the onion halves and slice the onions into thin wedges. Arrange on the salad. Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain and arrange in the center of the salad. Arrange the avocado slices around the edge of the platter, then sprinkle tortilla strips over the top of the salad.
