Grilled Steak Bowls with Cilantro Cream Sauce

Ingredients:

For the Steak:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless beef steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

For the Bowl:

  • 1 cup cooked rice (white, brown, or your choice)
  • 1 ear of corn, shucked and kernels removed
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (for garnish)

For the Cilantro Cream Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. Grill the Steak:

  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Season the steak with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Grill the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it’s cooked to your desired level of doneness. (If you’re using smaller pieces, it might cook even faster.)
  • Remove from the grill and set aside.

2. Roast the Corn:

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Toss the corn kernels with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Spread the corn evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 10-15 minutes, or until the kernels are slightly charred. Stir occasionally to ensure even roasting.

3. Make the Cilantro Cream Sauce:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. (If you like it spicier, feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes!)

4. Assemble the Bowls:

  • Divide the cooked rice evenly among serving bowls.
  • Top each bowl with grilled steak, roasted corn, and sliced avocado.
  • Drizzle the cilantro cream sauce generously over the top.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro for a fresh, vibrant finish

Tips:

  • Steak Variety: You can use any type of steak that you prefer, such as flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye.
  • Spicy Option: For a spicier version of the sauce, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the cilantro cream sauce.
  • Side Dishes: Serve this bowl with a side of salad, roasted veggies, or even some tortilla chips for extra crunch.
