Good Eats: Tex-mex Caesar Salad

[victoriaeremita]

the_homemaker asked me for my homemade dressing recipe that  I recently used on a tex-mex caesar salad.  So, I decided to  type up the whole recipe because I would certainly make it again, it was delious! Sometimes,  I don't like eating salad alone so I paired it up with a side of cornbread which went really well.

Tex-mex Caesar Salad:

1/2 lb skirt steak
1/4 cup olive oil
1 lime (will need 2 limes if making dressing) 
1 tsp mexican oregano

1/2 package of frozen corn or 1 ear fresh corn, shucked, silks removed
1 red onion, sliced
1 bunch romaine lettuce, chopped
3 oz shredded cotija cheese

Dressing:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp water
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
