INGREDIENTS
7 oz Lean Sirloin Steak
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into strips and toss them lightly with half teaspoon olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and 1/2 tsp cumin. Spread them on a baking tray and roast them for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the peppers are roasting, season the steak on both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Let the spices adhere for a few minutes.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side depending on thickness, aiming for your preferred doneness. Once done, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the meantime, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked. Warm it in a small saucepan with a dash of cumin and a drizzle of lime juice to infuse Mexican flavors.
Plate the dish by placing the spiced quinoa as a base, layering with roasted bell peppers, and topping with slices of the seared steak. Drizzle a little extra lime juice if desired and serve immediately.
