Spiced Steak Sweet Bowl
Roasted sweet potatoes tossed in coriander and olive oil then combined with seared skirt steak rings. Fresh baby kale replaces spinach for a peppery bite. Garlic and serrano pepper mingle tossed with lime juice, bright cilantro accents. Cook until sweet potatoes crackle and crisp at edges, steak slices remain pinkish inside. Prep focused on tactile cues: fork tender potato, firm steak resistance, fragrant garlic aroma emerging. Flavors balanced with creamy avocado, scallion crunch, lime sharpness. Skillet searing releases Maillard crust — hear the sizzle, smell the caramelizing proteins. Practical tweaks include swapping flank for strip steak, cumin for coriander, serrano stands in for jalapeno. Timing flexible depending on potato size and personal doneness. Rest steak to keep juices locked, slice against grain for tenderness.
