Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, sliced into thin strips

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 bell pepper (red or green), sliced

1 onion, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

½ teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)

½ avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Juice of 1 lime

Optional: Greek yogurt or sour cream for topping

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak strips, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.

    Cook the Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, increase the heat to medium-high. Add the marinated steak strips and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Make sure to stir frequently for even cooking.

        Mix the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, sautéed vegetables, and cooked steak.

          Top and Serve: Top each bowl with sliced avocado, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream if desired.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, protein-packed steak fajita bowl!
