Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, sliced thin against the grain

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 bell pepper (any color), sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice

1 avocado, diced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 lime, juiced

Optional toppings: Greek yogurt or sour cream, shredded cheese, salsa

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine the sliced flank steak with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor).

    Cook the Steak: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated flank steak and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

      Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5-6 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.

        Assemble the Bowl: In a large bowl or individual serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa or brown rice at the bottom. Add a generous portion of the sautéed vegetables, followed by the cooked steak, and the black beans.

          Add Fresh Ingredients: Top each bowl with diced avocado, chopped cilantro, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and any additional toppings like Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, or salsa.

            Serve: Enjoy your high-protein steak fajita bowl while it's hot and freshly assembled!
