Fajita Veggies

Guacamole

Method

Protein

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken or Steak

    If using chicken, season with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-cook over medium heat until fully cooked (about 6-7 minutes per side). If using steak, season and grill to desired doneness (about 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare). Let rest, then slice.

Fajita Veggies

  1. 2

    Sauté the Fajita Veggies

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced bell peppers and onions, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Pico de Gallo

  1. 3

    Make the Pico de Gallo

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and let sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Guacamole

  1. 4

    Prepare the Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with lime juice and salt until creamy but still chunky. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Salsa Verde

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salsa Verde

    Blend tomatillos, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice in a food processor until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt if necessary.

Assemble the Bowl

  1. 6

    Put Together the Double Protein Bowl

    In a serving bowl, start with a base of chopped romaine lettuce. Layer on the sliced protein (chicken or steak), sautéed fajita veggies, black beans, pico de gallo, guacamole, and drizzle with salsa verde. Serve immediately.
