Grain Bowls With Grilled Corn Steak And Avocado Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the chickpeas with the curry powder, 1 teaspoon of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Place on one side of a baking sheet. Arrange the onions next to the chickpeas, then the sweet potatoes and lastly the mushrooms. Toss the onions, sweet potatoes and mushrooms with the remaining 3 teaspoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Bake until the chickpeas are a bit crunchy and the sweet potatoes are softened and starting to turn brown in a few spots, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the yogurt, tahini and juice of half the lemon in a small bowl. Slice the remaining lemon into wedges.
• Divide the quinoa between two bowls. Arrange half the vegetables and avocado slices on top of the quinoa, leaving a space for the yogurt in the middle. Dollop the yogurt in the empty space and serve with the lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Combine water and dirty rice mix in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cover. Cook until water is absorbed, about 45 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and set aside until needed.
• While rice is cooking, combine shrimp, chili powder, paprika, cumin, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
• Heat oil in a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook until no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side.
• Mix corn, red bell pepper, cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil together in a bowl to make corn salad.
• Combine avocado, cilantro, yogurt, garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a food processor. Pulse until dressing is smooth.
• Assemble bowls by dividing cooked rice, cooked shrimp, corn salad, black beans, and sliced avocado evenly. Drizzle with dressing and garnish with lime wedges.
