Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin

  4. Pour the queso cheese sauce over the rice mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated and heated through.
  5. Add the cooked steak back into the skillet and gently mix until combined.
  6. Remove from heat, squeeze lime juice over the top, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro before serving.
