Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Slice 1/2 lb poblano peppers and 8 oz mini sweet peppers into strips. Slice 1/2 lb white onion into wedges. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper on a sheet pan. Roast 18-22 minutes until tender and lightly charred.
  2. While the vegetables roast, cut kernels from 2 ears corn. Dice 1/2 lb roma tomato, dice 1 avocado, mince 2 garlic cloves, finely chop 1 small jalapeno, and chop a small handful of cilantro.
  3. Season 1 lb diced carne asada beef with 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, salt, pepper, and half the minced garlic.
  4. Heat a large skillet over high heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear the beef in a single layer 3-5 minutes, stirring only occasionally, until browned and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
  5. In the same skillet, add corn kernels and cook 2-3 minutes until lightly blistered. Stir in remaining garlic for 30 seconds.
  6. Mix the diced tomato, avocado, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt into a quick fresh salsa.
  7. To serve, divide 2 cups cooked rice between 2 bowls. Top with roasted peppers and onion, seared carne asada, and blistered corn. Spoon the tomato-avocado salsa over the top. For plating, keep each component in visible sections for a Sonoran-style bowl look.
