Description
Savor the vibrant flavors of grilled steak marinated in lime and cilantro, served over fluffy rice with avocado.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb steak (flank or sirloin)
- 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 2 limes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, corn, black beans
Instructions
- Mix together the olive oil, lime juice, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well-combined.
- Marinate the steak in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.
- Grill or pan-sear the steak to your desired doneness, about 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it.
- Place the cooked rice in bowls, topping with sliced steak, avocado, and any additional toppings.
- Garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges for presentation.
Notes
For more robust flavors, marinate the steak overnight. Use aluminum foil for easy clean-up, and leftover steak is great for salads or sandwiches.
