Steak with Citrus Salsa
This takes a bit of time but is mostly hands off and is a refreshing way to serve a seared steak. Additionally, using the reverse sear method is a nice foolproof approach that takes the stress out of cooking the steak. I like to serve this with a side salad.

Ingredients
Steak
- 1 pound top sirloin 2 8-ounce steaks, use ribeye for higher fat
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1/4 teaspoon coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon Korean chili flakes optional
Salsa
- 1 grapefruit cut into supremes, plus juices released
- 1/2 Meyer lemon cut into supremes
- 1/4 shallot minced
- 1/2 jalapeƱo minced
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- zest of 1/2 lemon
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Rub the beef with coconut aminos, garlic, coriander, and chili flakes, to taste and preheat the oven to 200ĀŗF. Place steaks on a wire rack set into a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the internal temperature of the steak is 115ĀŗF, about 20-45 minutes for medium-rare. This will vary depending on the thickness of your steak (thicker steaks will take longer) and oven conditions so check its internal temperature.
- While steak cooks, combine all salsa ingredients in a bowl and toss to combine. Set aside.
- Heat a cast iron pan over high heat as the steak is coming out of the oven. When hot, add a small amount of avocado oil to prevent sticking. Add the steak to the hot oil (it should sizzle immediately). Cook until steak is golden brown, about 1 minute. Flip and cook the other side the same way. Remove the steaks and slice (no need to rest a reverse seared steak).
