Grilled Steak with Tomato and Avocado Salsa

Pairing a juicy grilled steak with a refreshing salsa made from tomatoes and avocado not only enhances the flavor but provides a powerful combination of heart-healthy fats, antioxidants, and prostate-protecting nutrients.

Ingredients:

  • 2 New York strip steaks (8 oz each)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Tomato and Avocado Salsa:

  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Steaks:
    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Rub the steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside while making the salsa.
  2. Make the Salsa:
    In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, avocado, and red onion. Drizzle with lime juice and olive oil, and stir in the fresh cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside and allow the flavors to meld while grilling the steaks.
  3. Grill the Steaks:
    Grill the steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time to your preferred doneness. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes after grilling to retain the juices.
  4. Serve:
    Slice the steak and top with a generous spoonful of the tomato and avocado salsa. Serve with grilled vegetables or a light green salad on the side.
Health Benefits of Tomatoes and Avocado:

Tomatoes are packed with lycopene, an antioxidant that supports prostate health and may lower the risk of prostate cancer. The addition of avocado provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which help improve cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation, and promote brain health. Combined with the lean protein from steak, this dish provides a balanced, nutrient-rich meal perfect for men’s health.
