1
Grill the Steak
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the flank steak with salt and pepper. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (medium rare is ideal). Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
2
Prepare the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, diced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, and corn kernels. Toss gently to mix.
3
Make the Vinaigrette
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of olive oil, the juice of 2 limes, and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4
Assemble the Salad
Slice the grilled steak against the grain and add it to the salad bowl. Drizzle the cilantro lime vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine. Top with tortilla chips and crumbled queso seco.
5
Serve
Serve the salad immediately while the steak is warm, and enjoy!
