- 1 Tsp Pepper

Directions
- Start by pickling your veggies first and make the cabbage salad. Pickled veggies will be ready in an hour but for ultimate brininess you can leave them overnight!
- Get your ingredients together: cut the butter lettuce and grill the mushrooms
- Make your peanut sauce using the above ingredients. Use a little bit of water to start and then keep adding so it doesn't stay too thick or doesn't get too watery
- Dry your steak and season with salt and pepper only. This NY steak is a thick cut, so it takes about 8-10 mins on each side. Feel free to pop in broil for a couple minutes after the sear or finish cooking on stovetop. Let rest and slice.
- Assemble: Cut your avocado ( do this last so it doesn't brown), place your butter lettuce in first, place on the mushrooms, cabbage salad, pickled veggies and the sauce.
