Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank, skirt, or sirloin steak, patted dry
  • 23 bell peppers (mixed colors), sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 23 tbsp olive or avocado oil
  • 12 limes (zest and juice)
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 23 cups cooked rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice
  • 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained (optional)
  • Toppings (optional): avocado or guacamole, pico de gallo, Greek yogurt or sour cream, shredded cheese, jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Mix fajita seasoning with 1 tbsp oil and the zest/juice of 1/2 lime; rub on steak and let sit for 10–20 minutes.
  2. Cook rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice as directed, keeping it warm.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tbsp oil, and sear steak for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  4. Transfer steak to a board and let it rest for 5–10 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
  5. In the same skillet, add onions and peppers; cook for 4–6 minutes until tender-crisp.
  6. If using, add black beans to the pan and heat for 1–2 minutes.
  7. Assemble bowls by adding base followed by steak, veggies, and optional toppings.

Notes

For meal prep, keep wet toppings separate to avoid soggy bowls. Use a hot pan for the best sear.
