Bowls are way past “having a moment.” They’ve become a pillar of our lunches and dinners. Why? It’s simple: everything’s better in a bowl! (Nice knowing you, plates.) But seriously, the customizable combo of carbs, protein, veggies, and a drizzle of delicious sauce cannot be denied. True to form, this Tex-Mex rendition is fully loaded. Steamy cilantro-lime rice is topped with saucy spiced steak, charred poblano and onion, salsa fresca, and smoky red pepper crema. Who needs the tortilla when you’ve got all that?

Instructions

Cook Rice
1

In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve. • 4 SERVINGS: Use 1½ cups water.

Prep
2

While rice cooks, wash and dry all produce. Finely dice tomato. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges; mince one wedge until you have 1 TBSP. Zest and quarter lime. Core, deseed, and dice poblano into ½-inch pieces. Mince cilantro. Pat diced steak* dry with paper towels. • 4 SERVINGS: Mince a few onion wedges until you have 2 TBSP.

Make Salsa & Crema
3

• In a small bowl, combine tomato, minced onion, and juice from half the lime; season with salt. • Add smoky red pepper crema to a separate small bowl. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

Cook Veggies
4

• Heat a large drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add poblano and onion wedges. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly charred, 7-9 minutes. Transfer veggies to a plate. • 4 SERVINGS: Use a large pan.

Cook Steak
5

• Add another drizzle of oil to same pan; increase heat to high. Add steak and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. • Stir in Tex-Mex paste and ¼ cup water until combined. Bring to a simmer and cook until mixture is saucy and steak is cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Turn off heat. • 4 SERVINGS: Use 1/3 cup water.

Finish & Serve
6

• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter, lime zest, and half the cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide rice between bowls and top with veggies, saucy steak, salsa, crema, remaining cilantro, and any remaining sauce from pan. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side. • 4 SERVINGS: Use 2 TBSP butter.
