Description

A vibrant bowl featuring seasoned steak, colorful bell peppers, and zesty lime, perfect for a nutritious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb steak (flank or sirloin)
  • 2 bell peppers (red, yellow, green)
  • 1 onion (sweet)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and season with garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Cook the seasoned steak in the skillet for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  4. Set the steak aside to rest on a plate.
  5. Sauté the sliced bell peppers and onions in the same skillet for 5-6 minutes until tender and caramelized.
  6. Combine the steak back in the skillet, squeezing fresh lime juice over the mixture.
  7. Serve the mixture in bowls, garnished with fresh cilantro.

Notes

For deeper flavor, marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Avoid overcrowding the skillet for the best sear.
