Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Make the quinoa: Cook the quinoa as the label directs; fluff with a fork and stir in the cilantro and lime zest. Season with salt.
  2. Meanwhile, make the vegetables: Toss the sweet potatoes, poblanos and red onion with the olive oil, chili powder, cumin and garlic powder in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until tender and browned around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
  3. Make the steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. 
  4. Assemble the bowls: Divide the quinoa among 4 shallow bowls. Top with the vegetables, steak, pico de gallo, crema and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
