Steak Marinade

Bowl Components

Method

Marinating the Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Add the steak tips to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cooking the Bowl Components

  1. 3

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, cook white rice according to package instructions. Typically, this involves boiling 4 cups of water, adding the rice, and simmering for 18-20 minutes.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Black Beans

    Rinse the black beans under cold water and heat them in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 5

    Roast the Corn

    If using frozen corn, sauté it in a skillet over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes until slightly charred. For fresh corn, grill it until roasted and then cut the kernels off the cob.

  4. 6

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Chop the red bell pepper and onion. In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Cooking the Steak

  1. 7

    Cook the Steak

    In the same skillet used for the vegetables, increase the heat to high. Add the marinated steak tips and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.

Assembling the Bowl

  1. 8

    Build the Bowl

    In a bowl, start with a base of white rice. Layer the warmed black beans, roasted corn, sautéed red peppers and onions, and cooked steak on top.

  2. 9

    Add Toppings

    Top the bowl with guacamole, pico de gallo, and a drizzle of sour cream.
