Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lb (907 g) s flank steak
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) olive oil
- Zest of 1 lime
- Juice of 2 limes
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced or finely chopped
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) chopped cilantro
- 2 teaspoon (10 ml) s kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cup (960 ml) s cooked rice or riced cauliflower
- 2 avocados, sliced
- 1 can (15 oz (425 g)) black beans, heated
- 1 can (15 oz (425 g)) corn, heated
- 1 cup (240 ml) shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- 1 cup (240 ml) sour cream
- 2 teaspoon (10 ml) s Tajin seasoning
- Juice of 1 lime
Instructions
- Put the flank steak into a shallow container or a resealable plastic bag.
- In a separate small bowl, combine the olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed, then pour this mixture over the steak, ensuring it coats both sides thoroughly. Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate to let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 3 hours.
- Preheat the grill to a medium-high setting, then place the marinated steak on it. Cook the steak for 10 minutes on one side, then turn it over. Continue grilling for another 10 minutes or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness. Remove the steak from the grill and let it sit on a plate or cutting board for about 5-10 minutes to rest. Cut the steak into thin slices against the grain or into small cubes.
- In each serving bowl, layer the cooked rice or riced cauliflower, sliced steak, avocado pieces, warmed black beans, heated corn, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced red onion. Finish by drizzling the spicy lime crema over the top.
Notes
- For a lighter option, swap cooked rice for riced cauliflower to lower carbs.
- Prevent avocado browning by adding fresh lime juice before slicing.
- Adjust spice level in lime crema by varying amount of Tajin seasoning.
