Description
A cozy comfort food delight featuring tender marinated flank steak, grilled to perfection atop a bed of fluffy rice, black beans, and sweet corn.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb flank steak
- 1 cup rice (white or brown)
- 1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 bell pepper (any color, diced)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 avocado (sliced)
- Feta cheese (optional, for topping)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Marinate the flank steak: In a shallow dish, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Add the flank steak, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Grill the steak: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the marinated flank steak on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
- Cook the rice: While the steak is grilling, cook the rice according to the package instructions.
- Layer your bowl: In a cozy bowl, layer the cooked rice at the bottom, then add a generous scoop of black beans, sweet corn, and fresh diced bell peppers and cherry tomatoes.
- Slice the steak: Once the steak is grilled to perfection, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
- Final touches: If you love a little extra creaminess, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top.
- Serve and enjoy: Spoon everything together and savor the beautiful colors and aromas.
