Spicy Carne Asada Steak Rice Bowl
Originally from Mexico, this spicy seared steak gets its kick from the punchy orange, lime and chilli marinade. Serve with rice, avocado and pickled red cabbage to balance the heat. Delicioso!

Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Cut the green chilli[es] in half lengthways, deseed (scrape the seeds out with a teaspoon) and chop finely
Tip: Keep the seeds in if you like it spicy!
Combine the juice of the orange[s] with the juice of 1/2 [1] lime, chopped green chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), ground cumin and soy sauce and give everything a good mix up – this is your carne asada marinade

Add the rump steaks to the carne asada marinade and set aside until later
Tip: Turn the steaks every few minutes to get them evenly coated!

Add the basmati rice and 300ml [600ml] cold water to a pot with a lid and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked
Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving

Whilst the rice is cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once very hot, add the marinated steaks (save the extra marinade for later!) to the pan
For rare, cook for 2 min max on each side
For medium-rare, cook for 2-3 min on each side
For medium, cook for 3-4 min on each side

Cut the avocado[s] in half lengthways, around the stone[s]
Remove the stone[s] using a teaspoon
Scoop the avocado out of the skin[s] using a spoon and slice it finely, lengthways and season with a pinch of salt
Chop the coriander finely, including the stalks

Once the steaks are done, transfer them to a plate and set them aside to rest
Return the pan to a medium heat, add the remaining marinade and cook for 2-3 min or until thickened slightly – this is your carne asada sauce

Slice the rested steaks finely – this is your carne asada steak

Cut the remaining lime into wedges
Serve the carne asada steak over the cooked rice and drizzle with the carne asada sauce
Top with the pickled red cabbage, sliced avocado, crumble over the feta cheese and garnish with the chopped coriander and a wedge of lime
Enjoy!
