Minute steaks make a quick meal as they only require a few minutes on high heat. Non-meat eaters can replace the steaks with firm tofu “steaks”. The creaminess of the avocado balances the fiery chili, and the salad is delicious as an accompaniment or as a main meal on its own. Either way this meal will have dinner on the table in 50 minutes.

Recipe

  • 4 x 8-minute steaks, depending on size
  • ½ red chilli, finely chopped
  • Juice and zest of 1 lime or lemon
  • Pinch of salt and grinding of black pepper
For the salad
  • 140 g / 125 ml (½ cup) double cream plain yoghurt
  • 10 ml (2 tsp) lime or lemon juice
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) finely chopped dill

  • 30 – 45 ml (2-3 tbsp) water
  • 4 baby Cos lettuce, washed, dried and trimmed and cut in half
  • 2 avocados, peeled, stoned and sliced into wedges
  • 4 baby cucumbers, sliced lengthwise
  • Pink grapefruit segments

Description

  1. Place the steaks, chilli, lime or lemon juice and zest with seasoning in a non-metallic dish, cover and set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.
