Instructions
1 Measure dressing ingredients into a screw-top jar. Shake to combine.
2 Place steak in a plastic bag then add half the marinade mixture. Massage bag to cover steak with marinade then set aside for 20-30 or more minutes (or refrigerate overnight). Add lemon or lime juice to the remaining marinade in jar. Shake to combine then set aside.
3 In a large bowl toss all the salad vegetables except avocado.
4 Preheat barbecue to a high heat and lightly oil the hotplate. Remove steak from marinade and place on the hotplate. Cook for 2-3 minutes each side or to your preference. Remove steak from hotplate and allow to rest for about 5 minutes before cutting into 5mm slices.
