Ingredients

• 1 pound lean flank steak
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup corn kernels
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
• 1 optional avocado, diced
• 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup fat-free Greek yogurt (as a sour cream substitute)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine low-sodium soy sauce, lime juice, chipotle chili powder, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or resealable bag, pour the marinade over the steak, and ensure it is evenly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Step 3

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove steak from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.

Step 4

Grill the steak for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Step 5

While the steak rests, prepare the bowl ingredients. Divide the cooked brown rice, black beans, corn kernels, cherry tomatoes, and shredded romaine lettuce evenly into four bowls.

Step 6

Top each bowl with slices of the grilled flank steak.

Step 7

Garnish with diced avocado (if using), fresh cilantro, and a dollop of fat-free Greek yogurt.

Step 8

Serve immediately, and enjoy your healthy Low Fat Chipotle Steak Bowl!
