Sounds like an excellent occasion to kick back with a frosty beverage and enjoy perfectly seasoned steak with all the trimmings, including housemade pico de gallo, smashed black beans, and Spanish rice. Crowned with creamy Queso Fresco and lime zest, this meal will inspire you to raise your glass and toast to victory.

1 Onion
¾ cup Parboiled White Rice
1 Lime
1 Jalapeno Pepper
1½ oz. Queso Fresco
1 Tbsp. Home Chef Carne Asada Seasoning Blend
2 Garlic Cloves

1 Tbsp. Spanish Rice Seasoning Blend

You will need:

Olive Oil

2 Medium Pots
1 Mixing Bowl

Directions

Prepare the Ingredients
Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Peel and dice red onion. Remove stem, membrane (spiny white innards), and seeds from jalapeño and cut into a fine dice. Halve lime. Zest one half for garnish. Mince garlic. Cut tomato into fine dice. Rinse and drain beans. Rinse steaks and pat dry.
Cook the Rice
In a medium pot bring 1½ cups of water, rice, Spanish Rice Seasoning Blend, and a pinch of salt to a boil. Reduce heat and stir rice occasionally. Cook until rice is tender throughout, about 12-15 minutes.Fluff and keep warm until ready to serve. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Make the Pico De Gallo
In a clean mixing bowl, combine the diced red onion to taste (the flavor can be strong for some), garlic, tomato, jalapeño, a dash of salt, and the juice of the lime to taste. Allow to marinate at room temperature until ready to serve.
Prepare the Beans
In a medium pot over medium heat, add beans, ¼ cup of water, and salt and pepper to taste. Allow to cook for 7-10 minutes, mashing as you go, or until beans become thick and have a texture like refried beans. Keep warm until ready to serve.
Cook the Steaks
In a medium pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 tsp. olive oil. While skillet is warming, coat steaks with the Carne Asada Seasoning Blend and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add steaks to hot pan.

Plate the Dish
Spoon a serving of rice onto a plate.Ladle some black beans next to the rice and garnish with Queso Fresco. Add a steak atop the rice and beans. Garnish with fresh Pico de Gallo and lime zest, if desired.
