Ingredients
- 1½ lb New York strip steak
- 24 oz broccoli slaw
- 1 count pineapple
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro
- 1 bunch green onions
- 2 count limes
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Steps
- Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Rub the steaks with 1 tbsp olive oil, the cumin, turmeric, and most of the salt and pepper.
- Peel, core, and cut the pineapple into rings. Grill the rings 2 minutes per side, then chop half into bite-size pieces (serve the rest as is).
- Grill the steaks 4-5 minutes per side to 145°F for medium, then rest 5 minutes.
- Whisk the lime juice, white wine vinegar, remaining olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Toss with the broccoli slaw, chopped pineapple, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro.
- Slice the steak thinly across the grain and serve over the slaw with the remaining grilled pineapple.
- Make ahead: mix the dressing and chop the pineapple, green onions and cilantro up to a day ahead and keep them in the fridge. Toss with the slaw just before serving.
- Picky eater tip: serve the plain sliced steak and plain grilled pineapple rings, with the slaw on the side.
On the side: Warm pita and hummus (5 min)
1 package pita bread, 1 container hummus
- Warm the pitas in a dry skillet or the oven for 1 to 2 minutes, cut into wedges and serve with the hummus.
