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)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • Pinch of cayenne
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, packed
  • 2 green onions, rough 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
  • Optional extras: pickled red onions, crumbled cotija cheese, extra lime wedges, sliced radishes, fresh cilantro leaves

Instructions

  1. Marinade the steak: In a bowl, mix together olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and optional chili powder. Rub this marinade over the steak and let it sit for 15 minutes.
  2. Prepare the corn: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Husk and cut the kernels off fresh corn or measure frozen corn. Toss with olive oil, salt, chili powder, and cayenne.
  3. Roast the corn: Place the corn in the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway, until caramelized.
  4. Cook the steak: Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated steak, and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let it rest.
  5. Blend the cilantro cream sauce: In a food processor, combine sour cream, cilantro, green onions, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  6. Prepare the bowls: Slice avocados, and dice or shred the rested steak.
  7. Assembly time: In each bowl, start with a base of cooked rice or quinoa, followed by roasted corn and sliced steak. Top with avocado slices and drizzle with cilantro cream sauce. Add optional extras if desired.

Notes

Allow the steak to rest after cooking for juiciness. Store leftovers in an airtight container; cream sauce may separate but can be stirred back together.
