Tips:
- For the perfect medium-rare steak, cook it for 5-7 minutes per side over medium-high heat.
- To make sure the steak is evenly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should be 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the steak by cutting into it. It should be slightly pink in the center.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Slice the avocado thinly and sprinkle it with lime juice to prevent it from browning.
- Use a variety of salad greens for added flavor and texture. Arugula, spinach, and romaine are all good choices.
- Top the salad with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and crumbled feta cheese.
