Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Blitz chipotle peppers and lime juice in a small bowl with 1 tbsp oil until a thick paste forms.

  2. Step 2

    Pat steak dry. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Sear steak 2 minutes per side without moving—the surface should turn brown and edges caramelize.

  4. Step 4

    Slice steak against the grain into 0.5-inch strips. Return to skillet, add chipotle paste, and toss for 60 seconds.

  5. Step 5

    Divide rice between bowls. Top with steak, greens, tomatoes, and cashews. Serve immediately.
