Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb. skirt or flank steak
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more
3 large or 4 small ears of corn, shucked
2 cups cooked whole grains, such as quinoa, farro, rice, or barley
3 oz. crumbled feta or Cotija cheese (about 1/2 cup)
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 avocado, peeled, thinly sliced
Creamy Jalapeño Sauce (for serving)

Steps:

  • Season steak with 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or heat grill pan over medium-high. Grill steak, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of steak registers 120-125°F for medium-rare (2-3 minutes per side for skirt; 3-4 minutes per side for flank). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 10 minutes or until cool.
  • Meanwhile, grill corn until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to cutting board and let cool.
  • Slice corn off cobs into a large bowl. Add grains, feta, scallions, oil, lime juice, and 1/2 tsp. salt and stir to combine. Divide corn mixture among bowls.
  • Thinly slice steak against the grain (to make slicing easier for skirt steak, cut into 5"-6" segments, then slice against the grain). Top bowls with steak and avocado. Drizzle jalapeño sauce over; season with salt and pepper.
  • Do Ahead: Steak and corn can be grilled 3 days ahead. Transfer to separate airtight containers and chill.

These grain bowls are so easy to customize. I added some grilled chicken and roasted vegetables to mine.
