Allergens

None of the fourteen declared allergens is in the ingredient list as written.

Jarred peppers in brine often list sulphites.

Flags follow UK labelling rules and come from the ingredients as listed, not from any particular brand. Check the packet before cooking for somebody with an allergy.

Ingredients

Rump steak, fat trimmed170 g
Weighed raw. The same piece weighed after cooking has lost water, so the protein per gram is higher and the total would come out about a quarter over.
Chipotle paste2 tsp (12 g)
Little gem lettuce100 g
Roasted red peppers from a jar, drained80 g
Avocado60 g
Flesh only. Half a medium avocado is about 70 g.
Red onion30 g
Radishes50 g
Olive oil5 g
Lime juiceJuice of a lime
Fresh corianderA handful

Method

Rub the steak with the chipotle and a little salt and leave it ten minutes.
Slice the onion thinly and leave it in half the lime juice with a pinch of salt while everything else happens.
Sear the steak in a very hot dry pan for two and a half minutes a side, then rest it five minutes and slice it thinly.
Whisk the oil with the rest of the lime, toss the leaves, peppers and sliced radish in it, and lay the steak, avocado, pickled onion and coriander over.

Worth knowing

Chipotle paste is smoky and quite sweet, 18 g of carbohydrate per 100 g. Two teaspoons on the steak is enough that nothing else on the plate needs to be smoky.
Ten minutes in lime takes the rawness out of the onion. It is a different ingredient after.
