A steak burrito bowl is a deconstructed burrito served in a bowl, packed with juicy marinated steak, fresh vegetables, rice, and beans. It’s a hearty, customizable, and flavorful meal perfect for dinner or meal prep.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak or sirloin steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1 avocado, sliced or cubed
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Sour cream or Greek yogurt (optional)
  • Shredded cheese (optional)
  • Salsa or hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
  2. Coat the steak with the marinade and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 4–5 minutes on each side, until desired doneness is reached.
  4. Remove steak from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.
  5. In serving bowls, layer cooked rice, black beans, corn, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
  6. Top with sliced steak, avocado, and chopped cilantro.
  7. Add sour cream, shredded cheese, and salsa or hot sauce if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For meal prep, store components separately for freshness.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check steak doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
  • Make it low-carb by substituting cauliflower rice.
  • Vegetarian version: use grilled vegetables or tofu instead of steak.
  • Add jalapeños or chipotle marinade for a spicier version.
