Ingredients

  • 1 avocado
  • 16 oz sirloin steak
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 1 can black beans (rinsed and drained)
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 2 tbsp cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
  • 1 small onion (finely diced)
  • 1/2 cup quinoa
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 cup corn
  • 2 tomatoes (diced)

Instructions

1. Make your quinoa in a rice cooker or in a pot on the stove. 2. Meanwhile, mix ingredients for corn salsa and pico de gallo together. 3. On med-high heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil to a large frying pan. When pan is smoking, add the steak and cook on high for approximately 2-3 minutes each side, depending on the thickness of your steak. When the steak is somewhat firm and not super squishy, I usually take it off. Be sure to let it rest for AT LEAST 5 minutes before slicing it across the grain! 4. After the steak is finished, keep the frying pan on the heat, add remaining tbsp of olive oil and add the veggies, sautéing for about 5 minutes and stirring every once in a while. 5. Now put your bowl together! Add sliced steak, stir-fried veggies, salsas and sliced avocado in a circle around the quinoa in the middle of the bowl. 6. Add your fave hot sauce, sour cream, cilantro and salsa as garnishes and enjoy!
