Steps:

• Whisk all the vinaigrette ingredients together in a small bowl. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• In a salad bowl, combine all the salad ingredients. Add a little bit of the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Serve the remaining vinaigrette on the side.

Steps:

• For the steak: Set a large resealable plastic bag in a medium saucepan and pull the edges of the bag over the sides of the pan for easy access to the bag. Add the vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, oregano, paprika, lemon juice, garlic, scallion, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the bag and whisk to combine. Add the London broil and seal the bag tightly. Remove the bag from the pan and use your hands to rotate the meat, coating thoroughly in the marinade. Lay the bag flat on a cutting board and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, flipping the bag after 30 minutes. (The seasoned meat can also be stored in the refrigerator overnight. Let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.)
• Remove the steak from the bag and discard any stuck-on garlic cloves and scallion. Set a grill pan over high heat until just starting to smoke, about 3 minutes. (Or prepare a grill for high heat.) Lightly oil the pan. Place the steak in the center of the pan and grill until the bottom is nicely charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the steak and continue grilling until an insert-read thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steak registers between 120 and 125 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes more. Transfer the steak to the cutting board and rest for 10 minutes.
• For the vinaigrette: While the steak rests, whisk the cilantro, olive oil, cumin, lime zest and juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Pour half of the vinaigrette into a small bowl and set aside.
• For the salad: Add the bell peppers and onions to the large bowl of vinaigrette and toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange the onions cut-side down and the peppers skin--side down on the same grill pan over high heat and grill until deeply charred, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the same cutting board as the steak.
• Add the remaining vinaigrette back to the large bowl. Add grated cheese and salad greens and toss to combine. Arrange the salad mixture on a large serving platter. Top with the grilled peppers.
• Cut the roots off the onion halves and slice the onions into thin wedges. Arrange on the salad. Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain and arrange in the center of the salad. Arrange the avocado slices around the edge of the platter, then sprinkle tortilla strips over the top of the salad.

Steps:

• Thinly slice one green onion; set aside. Cut the other onion into pieces; place in a blender. Add the cilantro, garlic, honey, oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and salt; cover and process until blended. Add tofu and vinegar; cover and process until smooth. , Transfer to a small bowl; stir in the sliced onion. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk 2 tablespoons oil and next 5 ingredients in small bowl. Arrange salmon and scallops on separate sides in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Pour marinade over and toss to coat, keeping fish and scallops apart. Let marinate at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, turning occasionally. Drain separately, reserving marinade.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle salmon and scallops with salt and pepper. Add salmon to skillet; sauté until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer salmon to platter. Add scallops to skillet; sauté until just opaque in center, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to platter with salmon. Pour reserved marinade into skillet; add mussels and clams. Cover and cook over high heat until mussels and clams open, about 3 minutes (discard any that do not open). Using slotted spoon, transfer mussels and clams to platter with salmon and scallops; cool to room temperature. Drizzle seafood with some Cilantro Dressing.
