Quinoa Steak Burrito in a Bowl
Ingredients:
Half of an inch thick sirloin steak
1 tablespoon olive oil
Half cup quinoa split into two
Stir-fried veggies, such as green and red peppers, onions, or whatever is available
Half an avocado, sliced
Boiled quinoa
Corn salsa ingredients:
¼ cup defrosted corn
¼ cup black beans
1 teaspoon lime juice
1/8 cup cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
A dash of hot sauce
Pico de Gallo ingredients:
1 finely sliced vine tomato
5 tablespoons finely cubed red onion
1 teaspoon lime juice
1/8 cup finely cut cilantro
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions:
Mix the salsas individually and blend them altogether. Then, let it sit as you cook the steak and veggies to enhance the flavors. On maximum heat, pour the olive oil into a big frying pot. When the pot starts to smoke, toss in the steak to cook at high temperature for around four minutes in each surface to become medium rare.
Afterwards, remove the steak from the frying pot and set it aside for a minimum of seven minutes. You can then start slicing the steak across its grain. Next, on the same frying pot atop maximum temperature, add the veggies. Sauté the vegetables for around five minutes.
Now, prepare the bowl by adding the sliced meat, stir-fried vegetables, salsa, besides the avocado circling the boiled quinoa at the center. You may add your favorite hot sauce, cilantro and other garnishes before enjoying the dish.
