Ingredients
| 1 | package UNCLE BEN’S® Long Grain & Wild Rice Sun-Dried Tomato Florentine |
| 2 | lbs. skirt steak or flank steak |
| 1 | green pepper sliced into strips |
| juice of 1 lime |
| 1/4 | cup fresh cilantro chopped |
| 1 | large onion sliced |
| 1 | head romaine lettuce chopped |
| 1 | ripe avocado diced |
| 2 | tsp. cumin separated |
| 1 | Tbsp. red wine vinegar |
| 1/4 | cup olive oil |
| salt and pepper |
Instructions
1. Follow the cooking directions on the UNCLE BEN’S® package to cook the rice. While the rice is cooking, heat a grill or broiler. Salt and pepper each side of the meat. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon cumin on both sides as well. In a medium bowl, toss the sliced onion and green pepper with salt and pepper and 1 teaspoon of cumin.
2. Grill or broil the meat and onions and peppers for about 5 minutes on each side. While the meat and rice is cooking, prepare the dressing.
3. Slice an avocado, remove the seed and spoon the insides into a small bowl. Add the lime juice, some salt, cilantro, olive oil and vinegar. Combine well with a fork or potato masher until well combined.
4. To assemble the salad, place a handful of chopped Romaine lettuce on a plate. Top with several heaping spoonfuls of rice mixture followed by a couple slices of onion and peppers. Of course, don’t forget the slices of meat and a generous drizzling of the guacamole dressing.
