Grilled steak salad with corn relish recipe

I came across this meal idea while organizing my recipes. It looks extensive, but is really quite simple.

Marinade
juice from 3-4 fresh limes
1 t each: cumin, chili powder
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 T olive or vegetable oil
salt and pepper to taste

2 lb beef sirloin steak, trimmed

Corn relish
2 ears fresh corn, husked
olive oil
3 fresh tomatoes, chopped
1/2 jicama, peeled and diced
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
fresh lime juice and salt to taste

Dressing
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 T chopped canned chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
1-2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup olive oil

salad greens
1 avocado, pitted and sliced

Whisk together marinade ingredients.  Pour over steak; cover, refrigerate and let steak marinate 4-8 hours. Turn occasionally.

Preheat grill on medium high heat.

Brush corn with oil. Grill til lightly charred. Cool. Cut corn from cob.




Transfer corn kernels to a large bowl. Stir in tomatoes, jicama, onion, cilantro, juice and salt.  Cover and refrigerate at least an hour. Taste and adjust as desired.

Grill steaks to desired doneness. Remove from grill and let rest several minutes. Thinly slice steaks across the grain.

Plate salad greens. Arrange steak over the top. Top steak with salsa. Drizzle with dressing and garnish with avocado slices.

This is without a doubt one of the best salads I have ever made.
