Steps:
- Remove the steak from the fridge, remove packaging, and set on a cutting board to come to room temperature while you prepare the vinaigrette and dry rub.
- Place all vinaigrette ingredients into a blender, and blend until smooth. Set aside.
- Prepare the fajita dry rub. Place all dry rub ingredients into a small bowl, then mix until thoroughly combined. Rub the fajita seasoning into both sides of the steak.
- Heat a 12" cast iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Add the steak to the grill pan and sear 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the steak from the skillet and place on a cutting board to rest while you cook the peppers and onions.
- Reduce the head to medium high, then add the oil to the skillet. Add the peppers and onions and toss to coat in the fat and leftover fajita spices. Saute the vegetables, tossing frequently, until soft and charred in spots, 6-7 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain.
- Prepare the salad. Divide the lettuce between four bowls, then top with half a sliced avocado and one-quarter of the tomatoes. Top each salad bowl with a quarter of the onions and peppers and a quarter of the steak. Sprinkle with cheese if using, and drizzle with cilantro lime vinaigrette to taste. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Add the lime juice, cilantro, jalapeños, white onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin, as well as a 1/4 cup of water to a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Slowly drizzle in a 1/4 cup of oil, whisking with the tines of a fork to combine.

- Add 3 tablespoons of oil to a large, skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Once the oil has come to temperature, add the flank steak and cook for about 12-14 minutes, turning it about half-way through. Set aside and allow to rest 5-10 minutes.
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor fitted with a blade attachment or blender and mix until the consistency is smooth and homogenous.
- Then, slice the beef as thin as possible (cutting against the grain) and set aside.

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.
