Description
A vibrant and flavorful bowl filled with juicy flank steak, fluffy rice, creamy avocado, and fresh cilantro, perfect for a cozy weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 cup cilantro, chopped
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by marinating the flank steak! In a bowl, combine the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let the steak soak in these flavors for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat a grill or skillet to high heat. Sear the marinated flank steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a perfect medium-rare finish.
- Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and allow it to rest for a few minutes.
- Slice the steak thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness.
- Now, build your bowl! In each serving bowl, layer the cooked rice, followed by the slices of steak, avocado, and top with fresh cilantro.
- If you like, drizzle a little extra lime juice over the top and serve immediately.
Notes
Marinate the steak overnight for added flavor and allow time for it to rest after cooking for the best results.
