For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the flank steak in a mixture of lime juice, soy sauce, and a touch of honey for at least 30 minutes before grilling. If you don't have a grill pan, a regular skillet works just as well. Just be sure to get it nice and hot before adding the steak. Customize your bowl! Add other favorite toppings like corn, bell peppers, or a dollop of guacamole. The avocado cilantro dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just give it a good stir before using.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
2 mins
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat until it's just barely smoking. (2 minutes)
02
Step
3 mins
In a bowl, combine garlic powder, chili powder, kosher salt, paprika, and cumin. Generously rub this spice blend over all sides of the flank steak. (3 minutes)
03
Step
20 mins
Grill the flank steak in the preheated grill pan, flipping halfway through, until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for about 8 minutes total. Let the steak rest on a work surface for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. (20 minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
Divide the cooked rice, halved cherry tomatoes, chopped romaine lettuce, tortilla chips, canned black beans, jalapeno peppers, and lime wedges evenly between 2 serving bowls. Top each bowl with the sliced steak, crumbled cotija cheese, and 1 tablespoon of fresh cilantro. (5 minutes)
05
Step
3 mins
In a blender, combine the peeled and pitted avocados, water, 1/2 cup of fresh cilantro, sour cream, lime juice, garlic clove, and a pinch of salt. Blend until the dressing is perfectly smooth and creamy. (3 minutes)

Step
1 mins
Generously pour the avocado cilantro dressing over each bowl. Serve immediately and enjoy the explosion of Tex-Mex flavors! (1 minutes)
