preparation
➊ For the salad, peel the avocado and mango, remove the stone and cut the flesh into wedges, then drizzle with the lime juice. Place the washed and shaken dry salad in a bowl.
➋ Add avocado, mango and later the smoked shrimp. Mix the salad. Drizzle with rice vinegar and season with salt and pepper.
➌ Prepare a grill for direct grilling and heat it to approx. 200 °C, prepare a smoker (alternatively a grill with a lid) for grilling, heat it up and set it to 100 °C.
➍ Make a few cuts in the flank steak on both sides so that it doesn't bulge when grilling. Then season with coarse sea salt and grill over the direct grill zone for 90 seconds on each side.
Then smoke the meat together with the shrimp in the smoker with the addition of wild cherry chunks for 15 minutes.
➎ To serve, cut the meat across the grain and arrange with the salad and pesto.
