Method

Taco Fillings

Prepare the Steak

In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture over the flank steak. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cook the Steak

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated flank 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 them into thin strips.

Warm the Tortillas

On the same grill or skillet, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are soft and pliable.

Assemble the Tacos

Place the sliced steak on the warm tortillas, top with fresh cilantro, and squeeze lime juice over the top.

Rice

Cook the Rice

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rice and salt, stir, and reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Beans

Prepare the Beans

In a small saucepan, add the canned black beans (drained and rinsed), cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
