Ingredients
  

For the Steak:
  • 2 pounds flank steak
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chile powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the Flatbread Crisps:
For the Chipotle Dressing:
  • 2 chipotles en adobo minced
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the Salad:
  • 1 large head Romaine lettuce washed, dried, and chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 English cucumber sliced
  • 4 radishes thinly sliced
  • 1/2 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 375°F.
For the Steak:
  1. Lay meat on a cutting board and cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Pound with a meat tenderizer or rolling pin until it is an even thickness. Transfer to a baking sheet and rub all over with the tablespoon of oil.
  2. Combine garlic, salt, cumin, and black pepper in a bowl then rub steak with the mixture on both sides. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
For the Flatbread Crisps:
  1. Cut the flatbread into small triangles and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the salt then toss to coat the crisps in oil. Lay out in a flat layer and bake for 15 minutes or until golden and crisp, turning every 5 minutes.
  2. Remove from oven and let cool. Turn oven up to 450°F.
For the Dressing:
  1. Combine all the ingredients in a sealable jar. Seal tightly and shake until combined.
For the Salad:
  1. Once oven is hot, roast meat until cooked to desired doneness; about 5 minutes for rare and 10 minutes for medium-well. Let sit about 10-15 minutes before slicing.
  2. Meanwhile toss lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, radishes, and onion in a large bowl with the flatbread crisps and dressing. Arrange on a large platter and top with sliced steak, avocado, and feta.
