Steak Taco Plate with Rice and Beans

This steak taco plate brings together everything you love about a taco, but without the tortilla. Think rich black beans, bright yellow rice, piquant pico de gallo, creamy Monterey jack cheese, and crisp romaine lettuce. All the components get cooked separately but come together in perfect harmony once assembled. Be sure to pat the steak as dry as possible and get that pan as hot as you can to ensure a good sear on the meat.

4) Just before the steak finishes cooking, tear the romaine into bite size pieces. Juice half the lime into a bowl and whisk in 1 tbsp of vegetable oil to make a simple vinaigrette. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper to taste.

4) After the cook, remove rice from Suvie Starch Cooker. Add black beans to rice, stirring to incorporate. Squeeze remaining lime half over the rice and beans. Season rice with salt and pepper to taste.

5) Pat steak dry throughly. Heat remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over high heat until just smoking. Add the steak and sear for 1 minute without moving, then flip and sear the other side for 1 minute. Transfer steak to a cutting board and cut against the grain into thin slices.

6) Toss the romaine in the vinaigrette and then divide between plates. Divide rice and beans between plates and top with Monterey jack. Divide steak between plates and spoon pico de gallo over each serving.
