steak

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

Ground beef is a more economical protein option.

Start with a New York strip loin steak.

Prepare a marinade with oil, chipotle powder, chili powder, garlic, cumin, and lime juice.

Whisk the marinade until it is pasty.

Marinate the steak for 15 minutes to avoid it turning gray.

Sear the steak for 2 to 3 minutes on one side, then flip and sear for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.

Add 3/4 cup beef broth to the pan to deglaze and simmer to reduce the sauce.

Slice the rested steak and add it back into the pan with the beef broth to soak up flavor for 1 to 2 minutes.

Prepare the burrito bowl by adding lettuce, pickled onions, corn, black beans, tomatoes, cheese, and chipotle lime crema on top.
