    • ½ tablespoon avocado or olive oil
    • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
    • ½ yellow onion, sliced
    • ½ teaspoon cumin
    • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Steak

  1. In a bowl or shallow dish, combine the chipotle peppers, oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the skirt steak, toss to coat, and marinate for a few hours or overnight for best results.
  3. Remove the steak from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.

Step 2: Roast the Vegetables

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Toss sliced bell pepper and onion with oil, salt, pepper, and cumin on a sheet pan.
  3. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 3: Prepare the Cauliflower Rice

  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add riced cauliflower and cook, stirring often, until slightly golden and tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Cook the Steak

  1. Shake off excess marinade from the steak.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook steak for 2-3 minutes per side, or until medium-rare (130°F internal temp).
  4. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes, then slice against the grain into thin strips.

Step 5: Assemble and Serve

  1. Divide cauliflower rice, roasted veggies, and sliced steak into 3 bowls.
  2. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Marinate the steak overnight for maximum flavor.
  • Use frozen pre-riced cauliflower to save time.
  • Add avocado or sour cream for extra creaminess if desired.
