So Easy Steak Tacos With Corn Salsa

Even though there are more than three ingredients in this meal, it's so easy to put together--and uses everything I typically already have in my house--that it feels just like a 3-ingredient meal. I love that I don't have to buy fatty cheese or sour cream, the avocado lends a creaminess all by itself. We like to serve ours with a can of black beans melted with white cheddar cheese, but this meals pairs just as beautifully with a salad or slices of grapefruit and oranges tossed together in a bowl.

  • 2 pounds New York Strip steak
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cups sweet white corn fresh or frozen

  1. Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and pepper generously on both sides of your steak. Melt butter in a hot grill pan and cook steak for 5-6 minutes on one side. Flip, cover with a lid, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or just until the steak is cooked to your favorite wellness. Allow steak to rest 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
