Ingredients

• 500 grams flank steak
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 head romaine lettuce
• 200 grams cherry tomatoes
• 1 large avocado
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 0.25 cup cilantro leaves
• 1 small jalapeno
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon chipotle in adobo sauce

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, ground cumin, chipotle chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard any excess.

Step 4

Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side or until desired level of doneness is reached. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Step 5

While the steak is resting, prepare the vegetables. Chop the romaine lettuce, halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the avocado, thinly slice the red onion, and dice the jalapeno (remove seeds if less heat is preferred).

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together sour cream and chipotle in adobo sauce until well combined to make the chipotle drizzle.

Step 7

To assemble the bowls, place a bed of chopped lettuce in each serving bowl. Top with sliced steak, cherry tomatoes, avocado, red onion, and jalapeno.

Step 8

Garnish each bowl with cilantro leaves and drizzle with the chipotle sour cream sauce before serving.
