Instructions
Make Cilantro Chimichurri dressing
- 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
- 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.
- 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!
