The dressing is simple, some homemade pico de gallo and squeeze fresh lime juice over everything! Steak is one of my favorite things to cook when I want something QUICK because everyone in my home loves it. Tommy is also a steak lover, but he’s pickier about the cut of steak he selects which is why I chose NY strip steak, it’s juicy and tender. This recipe is inspired by the new Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner website. Such a great resource for all things beef! With over 126 cuts, we often need a little help demystifying cooking with beef, and their new website is equipped with a guide for every cut: where it comes from, how to cook it and all the nutritional information.

How do you know when the steak is done?
Beef’s tender, juicy texture is optimum when cooked to medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness. To determine doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer horizontally into the side of steaks. Place the thermometer in the thickest part or center of the steak. The thermometer should not touch bone, fat or the grill.
