2 Add the Steaks
Pat steaks dry and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add steaks to hot pan and cook until browned, 2-3 minutes per side.Remove from burner. Steaks will finish cooking in a later step.After 15 minutes, carefully remove tray from oven and push vegetables to one side. Tray will be hot! Use a utensil.Transfer steaks to now-empty side of tray and evenly top with softened butter (use less if spice-averse). -
3 Bake Meal, Heat Rice, and Make Lime Crema
Bake again uncovered in hot oven until vegetables are tender and steaks reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 5-7 minutes.
Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.While meal bakes, carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps and remove from packaging. Combine rice and garlic salt in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave covered until heated through, 2-3 minutes.While rice microwaves, halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.In a mixing bowl, combine 1 tsp. lime juice, sour cream, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.Carefully remove rice from microwave and tray from oven. Fluff rice with a fork. Rest steaks, 3 minutes.To serve, top rice with vegetables and steak. Slice steak, if desired. Garnish with lime crema, cheese, and tortilla strips. Squeeze lime wedges over to taste. Bon appétit!
