5 Ingredient Flank Steak Charred Corn Salad
I- Ingredients:
- 2 ears of corn, husks removed;
- 1 avocado, diced;
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped;
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil;
- 1 pound flank steak;
- 1 tsp salt, divided;
- 1/4 tsp fresh cracked pepper.
II- Directions:
- Turn the burner on a stove to medium-high, and put corn on the burner. Rotate every few minutes, for about 5-10 minutes, until corn is slightly charred, set aside.
- When cooled, cut corn off of the stalk and into a bowl.
- Into the bowl add avocado and jalapeno and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt.
- Sprinkle steak with about 1/4 tsp salt and a little pepper on each side, then let rest.
- To a skillet, add olive oil and over medium-high heat allow it to warm up for 30 seconds.
- Add the flank steak in and cook each side for about 4-5 minutes, or until a nice crust form.
- Flank steak cooks quickly (depending on the thickness of the cut) so if you like it on the rarer side, cook it for 3-4 minutes.

- Serve steak over corn salad and enjoy!!
