Grilled Steak & Black Bean Celery


























The perfect lunch or dinner. This is what comes out of not going to the store in a week... random things that come together with finesse.



Ingredients:


- Round Roast, Sliced thin
- 3 celery stalked, diced
- 20 garlic cloves, diced
- 1 can black beans
- 1.5 cups minute rice
- fresh parsley
- olive oil
- pinch of vegetable bullion
- garlic powder
- smoked paprika
- oregano
- crushed red pepper
- salt
- pepper

To Make:
In a medium pot, drizzle with olive oil, add garlic and celery and cook on medium heat for about 10 minutes until the celery is tender. Season with salt and pepper.

In another medium pot, fill with 2 cups of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook 1.5cups of minute rice until rice is tender.

Add in the black beans and season with 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, salt, pepper and crushed red pepper. Add in 1/2 cup of water and a pinch of vegetable bullion. Stir together and cover. Leave on medium low heat while the meat cooks.

In a cast iron skillet, or grill pan, drizzle with olive oil and set on stove. Turn stove to medium heat. Pound 2 slices of beef and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and oregano. Once the grill is hot, lay gently on the stove. Cook each side about 5 minutes, depending on how you like your steak cooked.

To plate:
place a scoop of rice on a plate, top with black beans and plate meat on top. Garnish with fresh parsley.
