Ingredients

• 500 g Beef sirloin steak
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 200 g Cherry tomatoes
• 1 large Avocado
• 0.5 Red onion
• 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro
• 1 tbsp Lime juice
• 0.5 tsp Salt (for salsa)
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper (for salsa)

Directions

Step 1

Take the beef sirloin steak out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Season the steak on both sides with 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Set aside.

Step 3

To prepare the salsa, halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to a mixing bowl.

Step 4

Peel and dice the avocado into small cubes, then add to the mixing bowl with the tomatoes.

Step 5

Finely dice the red onion (use only half) and chop the fresh cilantro. Add both to the mixture.

Step 6

Squeeze 1 tbsp of lime juice over the salsa mixture, and season with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper. Gently toss to combine. Set aside for flavors to meld.

Step 7

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, carefully add the seasoned steak to the pan.

Step 8

Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your preferred doneness.

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to retain the juices.

Step 10

Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

Step 11

Serve the seared beef alongside the tomato avocado salsa for a fresh, vibrant dish.
