Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.5 lb flank steak grilled and set aside to cool (link to carne asada marinade in post, marinated in The Best Carne Asada marinade, 3 hours
  • 8 oz. romaine lettuce chopped
  • 5 oz. herb salad see notes
  • 1 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1.5 cup cucumber sliced
  • 1/2 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 2 avocado diced

Cilantro Chimichurri

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 3 cups Italian parsley fresh
  • 2 cups cilantro fresh
  • 1.5 tsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp. oregano dried
  • pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

Make Cilantro Chimichurri dressing

  1. Add ingredients under "Cilantro Chimichurri" to a food processor and blend until there are no chunks of garlic. Alternatively, if you have a mortar & pestle, you can prepare this in that too! Enjoy!

Make salad

  1. In a large bowl, combine the romaine, herb salad, red bell pepper, cucumber, and red onion. Pour all but 2-3 tbsp of the Cilantro Chimichurri over the salad and toss to coat well - if desired, add more red wine vinegar to the chimichurri to thin it out a little bit. Season to taste with salt & pepper and add the avocado, gently tossing, being sure not to smash the avocado.
  2. Slice your grilled flank steak across the grain and carefully transfer it from the cutting board to the top of the salad. Drizzle the remaining 2-3 tbsp of reserved Cilantro Chimichurri over the flank steak and serve. Enjoy!
