Nutrition Instructions
  1. Squeeze the lemons and orange into a large bowl or gallon sized resealable bag. Add in the seasonings, onion, garlic, apple cider vinegar and avocado oil. Mix well.
  2. Put the steak in the bag or bowl and toss to coat with marinade. Place in the fridge and marinate for 12 hours, turning over once halfway through.
  3. Set the meat out, in the marinade, to room temperature one hour before cooking.
  4. Preheat the oven to 260°C.
  5. Place a cooling rack over your sheet pan and brush with fat. Set the meat on the pan (with the rack), directly under the broiler. Cook for 9 minutes, flip over and cook for another 9 minutes.
  6. Remove the meat from oven and place it on a cutting board to rest for 10 minutes.
  7. While the meat rests prepare the avocado salad. Peel and seed the avocado. Put the cut side down and slice the avocado in ¼ inch slices. Place the slices in a bowl.

  9. Slice the steak against the grain in thin slices.
