What You'll Need

  • 2 (3.5-ounce) bags boil-in-bag rice
  • 3/4 pound flank steak
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 (16-ounce) package frozen bell pepper stir-fry
  • 1 (14-1/2-ounce) can Mexican-style stewed tomatoes, undrained

What to Do

  1. Prepare rice according to package directions to make 4 cups cooked rice.

  2. While rice cooks, slice steak in half lengthwise; slice each half diagonally across grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Combine chili powder, cumin, and salt in a resealable plastic freezer bag; add meat. Seal bag, and shake until meat is well coated.

  3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add meat; stir-fry 4 minutes or until browned.

  4. Remove meat from skillet, and set aside; add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, and heat over medium heat. Add bell pepper stir-fry; stir-fry 2 minutes or just until tender. Add tomatoes; bring to a boil. Cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Return meat to skillet; cook until thoroughly heated. Remove skillet from heat.

  5. To serve, place 1 cup rice on each of 4 plates; top evenly with meat mixture.

Notes

Wrap this juicy meat mixture in a flour tortilla for additional Tex-Mex flavor.
