DIRECTIONS
STEAK: In a shallow container with a lid, add your steak and mariande ingredients. Get in there with your hands and rub the steak so its completley coated in everything. Set that in the fridge for at least 1 hour. If you can marinate your steak in the morning and cook it that evening that is better!
DRESSING: In a blender, add all of your dressing ingredients. Blend for 1 minute until really creamy. Pour into an airtight container and place into the fridge. The dressing will last up to 5 days in the fridge.
SALAD: Turn on your grill and heat that baby up. Husk your corn and spray with a little olive oil spray. Place on the grill turning every couple minutes until the corn is charred. If you don’t want to use the grill you can do this with a pan on the stove! Once your corn is done cut it off the cob and assemble the rest of your salad ingredients.
SERVING: Once your ready to serve, cook your steak on the grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side. This will depend on how thick your steak is. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes untill you cut into it. Hope you enjoy!
