2 teaspoons seeded and minced jalapeno pepper
1 clove garlic
¾ teaspoon minced fresh ginger
⅓ cup lime juice
¼ cup packed cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound flat iron steak

1 cup chopped yellow bell pepper
½ cup thinly sliced red onion
1 plum tomato, diced

Steps:
