Steak

 * 1) Combine first 8 ingredients in a shallow container.
 * 2) Remove about ¼ cup marinade and reserve; add steak to container, turning to coat meat on both sides and marinate at least 1 hour.
 * 3) To prepare arepas, process cornmeal in a blender until finely ground (arepa flour doesn’t need further grinding).
 * 4) Transfer to large bowl and stir in cheese, 2 tablespoons melted butter and salt.
 * 5) Add enough boiling water to make a very thick batter; stir in corn.
 * 6) Brush griddle with remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter and heat until medium-hot.
 * 7) Using about 1 tablespoon batter for each arepa, drop batter onto hot griddle and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side.
 * 8) Keep warm.
 * 9) Drain steak from marinade and place on medium-hot grill or in grill pan.
 * 10) Cook 5 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness.
 * 11) Brush avocado slices and bell pepper halves with reserved marinade and grill, turning once, until lightly browned with grill marks.

Avocado cream

 * 1) Cut avocado into chunks and blend with sour cream, lime juice and cayenne in blender until smooth.
 * 2) Slice steak and place a few pieces on each arepa.
 * 3) Cut bell pepper into strips and arrange over steak; top with grilled avocado slices and a dollop of avocado cream.
 * 4) Sprinkle with chopped red chilies; garnish with lime wedges and corn husks filled with chopped chilies.
