With lean grilled beef and market-fresh veggies, this crispy crunchy main-course salad has all the satisfaction of a nacho platter with a fraction of the fat and a BIG boost of nutrients. Using oven-toasted whole wheat flour tortillas as the tostada base is a healthier choice than traditional fried corn tortillas.
Ingredients
Directions
Marinade/Dressing: In bowl, combine lime rind, lime juice, coriander, chili powder and garlic. Set aside 3 tablespoons (45 mL) into a large bowl for dressing. Rub remaining mixture over both sides of steak. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Meanwhile, toast tortillas (see Cook’s Notes).
Pat steak dry; season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high, for 10-12 minutes, turning at least twice, for medium-rare doneness 145°F(63°C). Let rest before slicing.
Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until onion is softened, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until all liquid is released, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; add tomatoes and corn. Cook, stirring just until softened, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk remaining oil into reserved marinade to complete the dressing. Thinly slice steak; add to dressing along with mushroom mixture, lettuce and coriander, tossing gently to coat. Pile 1/2 cup (125 mL) beef mixture on each tortilla to serve.
BRIGHT IDEA Oven-Toasted Tortillas
Spray both sides of tortillas with cooking spray; place in single layer on baking sheet. Bake in 350˚F (180˚C) oven for 10 minutes or until crisp and lightly browned.
