Ingredients
- 1 lb steak (flank or sirloin)
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups bell peppers, sliced
- 1 cup red onions, sliced
- 1 cup corn (optional)
- 2 cups cooked rice or grain (white, brown, or quinoa)
- Toppings: sliced avocados, sour cream, fresh salsa
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Add your steak, allowing it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Cook the Steak: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish.
- Let It Rest: Once cooked, let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Prepare the Rice or Base: Cook chosen grain according to package instructions while the steak rests.
- Sauté Vegetables: For added depth, sauté your vegetables in a bit of olive oil until tender.
- Assemble the Bowls: Start with a scoop of rice, top with sliced steak and sautéed vegetables. Add fresh toppings.
- Serve and Enjoy: Dig in and savor each bite.
Notes
Marinate steak longer for enhanced flavor. Adjust cooking time based on desired doneness.
