Ingredients

• 1 lb Flank steak
• 2 tablespoons Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Lime juice
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups White rice
• 4 cups Water
• 1 can (15 oz) Black beans
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 cup Cilantro
• 1 whole Avocado
• 0.5 whole Red onion

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the marinade for the steak. In a blender or food processor, combine chipotle peppers, olive oil, lime juice, garlic cloves, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steak. Ensure the steak is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably up to 2 hours.

Step 3

While the steak is marinating, cook the rice. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Set aside and keep warm.

Step 4

Drain and rinse the black beans. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, chop the cilantro, dice the avocado, and thinly slice the red onion. Set these aside for assembling the bowls.

Step 5

Once the steak has marinated, heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.

Step 7

To assemble the steak bowls, start with a base of cooked rice in each bowl. Top with slices of steak, black beans, cherry tomatoes, cilantro, avocado, and red onion.

Step 8

Serve the bowls immediately with a wedge of lime on the side, and enjoy!
