Ingredients | Mushroom Avocado Sandwich

2 tablespoons cayenne pepper

6 tablespoons paprika

3 tablespoons ground black pepper

1 tablespoon ground cumin

3 tablespoons onion powder

3 tablespoons garlic powder

1 tablespoon ground allspice

1 tablespoon ground dried thyme

¼ cup olive oil

4 pounds flat iron steaks

3 avocados - peeled, pitted, and cubed

¼ cup chopped green onions

1 large red bell pepper, diced

1 red onion, diced

¼ cup chopped cilantro

2 tomatoes, seeded and chopped

¼ cup fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons olive oil

sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

2 (1 pound) French baguettes

½ pound thinly sliced Cheddar cheese

Directions

Stir together cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, allspice, thyme, and 1/4 cup olive oil in a large bowl until evenly mixed. Smear the flat iron steaks with this paste, then wrap with plastic wrap, or place into a resealable plastic bag. Marinate in refrigerator for 6 hours.

Prepare avocado salad by gently mixing cubed avocado, green onion, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and tomatoes. Drizzle with lime juice and olive oil; season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil grate.

Grill flat iron steaks until cooked to desired degree of doneness, or to an internal temperature of 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. While the steaks are resting, cut each baguette into three pieces, then halve the pieces horizontally. Toast bread, cut-side down on grill until golden brown. Turn baguettes over, and place sliced cheese on the cut sides; allow cheese to melt.

To assemble sandwiches, thinly slice the flat iron steaks across the grain, and pile onto baguettes. Top with avocado salad before serving.
