Steak Marinade

Cilantro Lime Rice

Burrito Assembly

Method

Steak Marinade

  1. 1

    Marinate the Steak

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak and coat it well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Chile Crema

  1. 3

    Prepare Chile Crema

    In a small bowl, mix sour cream, chipotle peppers, lime juice, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Chile Corn Salsa

  1. 4

    Make Chile Corn Salsa

    In a mixing bowl, combine corn, diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Cilantro Lime Rice

  1. 5

    Cook Rice

    In a saucepan, combine white rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes until rice is cooked. Remove from heat.

  2. 6

    Season Rice

    Stir in lime juice, chopped cilantro, and salt to taste into the cooked rice.

Black Beans

  1. 7

    Heat Black Beans

    In a small saucepan, combine rinsed black beans, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.

Burrito Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble Burritos

    Lay a large flour tortilla flat. Start with a scoop of cilantro lime rice, followed by black beans, grilled steak slices, a drizzle of chile crema, chile corn salsa, and a handful of tortilla strips. Wrap the tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you roll. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Serve the burritos warm, optionally with extra chile crema on the side.
