Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 lbs flank steak or ribeye
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp chili powder (optional)
- 3 ears of fresh corn (or 2 cups frozen corn)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, packed
- 2 green onions, roughly chopped
- 1 jalapeño, seeds removed (optional)
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 cup cooked rice or quinoa (brown rice for extra health benefits)
Instructions
- Marinate the steak: Mix together olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder. Place steak in a large resealable bag with marinade for at least 30 minutes, ideally overnight.
- Prepare the roasted corn: If using fresh corn, peel the kernels off the cob. Combine corn with olive oil, salt, and chili powder. Spread on a baking sheet and roast at 400°F for about 20 minutes.
- Cook the steak: Heat your grill or grill pan to medium-high and grill the steak for about 4-6 minutes per side until medium-rare. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Make the cilantro cream sauce: Blend sour cream, cilantro, green onions, jalapeño, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth. Adjust seasoning as desired.
- Assemble your bowl: Start with a scoop of rice or quinoa, top with steak slices, roasted corn, and avocado. Drizzle with cilantro cream sauce.
- Customize your presentation with pickled red onions, crumbled cotija cheese, lime wedges, sliced radishes, and fresh cilantro as desired.
Notes
For best flavor, use fresh ingredients. Marinate steak overnight for maximum flavor. Customize with additional toppings as desired.
