Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Ribeye steak
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 pieces Avocado
- 1 piece Lime
- 0.25 cup Cilantro
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together chipotle powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to form a spice rub.
Rub each ribeye steak generously with the spice mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust to your preferred doneness.
While the steak is cooking, prepare the guacamole. Peel and pit the avocados, then mash them in a bowl. Add the juice of one lime, chopped cilantro, finely diced red onion, and chili flakes (if using).
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the guacamole, mixing gently to combine.
Remove the cooked steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
To assemble the burrito, lay two lettuce leaves slightly overlapping. Place a portion of sliced steak in the center, followed by a generous spoonful of guacamole.
Wrap the lettuce leaf around the filling, folding in the sides to secure. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper for a grab-and-go option.
