1 1/2 lbs top round steak, 1-inch thick
1 large avocado, diced
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1/3 cup frozen margarita drink mix, thawed
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp ground cumin

Combine margarita mix, cilantro, vegetable oil, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper. Reserve 2 tbsp of mixture and pour remaining into a resealable bag or non-reactive container. Add steaks to mixture, turning to coat. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

Remove steaks from marinade and discard the marinade. Place steaks on a preheated grill and cook until done, about 6 to 8 minutes per side. Meanwhile combine 2 tbsp of marinade with avocado and onion. Toss until evenly mixed. Remove steaks from grill and carve into thin slices. Serve with avocado salsa.
