Ingredients
Method
- Combine 3 tbsp lime juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper in a shallow dish. Add the flank steak, coat well, and marinate for at least 20 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the fridge.
- Bring 1.75 cups water to a boil, add 1 cup rinsed rice and 0.5 tsp salt, cover, and simmer on the lowest heat for 18 minutes. Remove from heat and steam covered for 5 more minutes, then fluff and stir in 2 tbsp cilantro and 1 tbsp lime juice.
- Stir together 0.5 cup sour cream, 2 tbsp mayonnaise, minced chipotle peppers, 1 tsp adobo sauce, and 1 tsp lime juice until smooth. Taste and adjust heat.
- Heat a dry cast iron skillet over high heat for 2 minutes. Sear the steak for 4 minutes per side until it reaches 135°F (57°C) internal. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
- In the same skillet over medium heat, stir the drained black beans with 0.5 tsp cumin for 3 to 4 minutes until warmed through.
- Warm each tortilla for 20 to 30 seconds per side in a dry skillet. Spread chipotle sauce down the center, layer with rice, beans, steak, and cheese, then roll tightly. Sear seam-side down for 1 to 2 minutes, slice in half on the diagonal, and drizzle with extra chipotle sauce before serving.
Notes
The chipotle sauce can be made up to 5 days ahead and kept in a sealed jar in the fridge. If you're cooking the steak straight from the fridge, let it sit out for about 15 minutes first so it sears evenly rather than cooling the pan.
