  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 tbsp lime juice (juice of about 3 limes)

  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced

      • Stir together 6 tbsp pesto, olive oil, cilantro, lime juice, garlic and cumin. Transfer steak and marinade to resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
      • Preheat grill to medium-high heat; grease grate well. Pat steak dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture; season with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until cooked as desired. Let stand for 5 minutes; slice thinly.
