Ingredients

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

1 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Greek yogurt or sour cream, for topping (optional)

Instructions

Marinate the Steak: In a large bowl, combine the flank steak with olive oil, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the steak. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor).

    Cook the Veggies: In a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté until they soften and are slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, increase the heat to high. Add the marinated steak in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat.

        Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, start by placing a base of cooked quinoa. Add a generous serving of black beans on top, followed by the sautéed vegetables and slices of steak.

          Garnish: Top the bowls with slices of avocado, a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream if using, and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side to squeeze over the top.

            Enjoy! This bowl is packed with protein, fresh flavors, and is customizable to suit your taste!
