Creating Cilantro Lime Steak Bowls is made simpler by following these straightforward steps:

1. Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the flank steak and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Cook the Rice: In a medium saucepan, bring vegetable or chicken broth to a boil. Add the rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the rice is tender and the broth is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
3. Prep the Vegetables: While the rice cooks, chop cherry tomatoes, slice the avocado, and chop the fresh cilantro.
4. Grill the Steak: Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time to your preferred doneness.
5. Let the Steak Rest: After grilling, allow the steak to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing against the grain into thin strips.
6. Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked rice, sliced steak, cherry tomatoes, corn, and avocado. Top with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of extra lime juice for freshness.
7. Serve Immediately: Provide lime wedges on the side for anyone who wants a little more zing.

By following these steps, you will create a delicious, hearty meal that is sure to satisfy your cravings.
