Ingredients

– 1 lb flank steak
– 1/4 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (plus more for garnish)
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice)
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
– 1 avocado, sliced
– 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
– 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained


Instructions

Making your Cilantro Lime Steak Bowls is simple! Follow these steps to bring your dish to life:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Marinate the Steak: Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s well coated. Seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Cook the Steak: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess liquid drip off. Grill for 4-6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
4. Let the Steak Rest: Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender meat.
5. Slice the Steak: Thinly slice the steak against the grain.
6. Prepare the Bowls: In individual bowls, layer cooked rice as the base. Top with sliced steak, cherry tomatoes, corn, avocado, red onion, and black beans.
7. Garnish: Finish each bowl with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a drizzle of your favorite dressing if desired.
8. Serve: Enjoy your beautifully arranged Cilantro Lime Steak Bowls while they’re fresh!

With these straightforward steps, you’ll create a visually appealing and delicious meal that your taste buds will rejoice over!
