Ingredients:

• 1 lb flank steak
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 cups cooked white rice
• 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup pico de gallo
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
• 1 cup sour cream
• 4 large flour tortillas
• Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
2. Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it's well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.
3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until desired doneness.
4. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
5. To assemble the burritos, lay a tortilla flat and add a scoop of rice, black beans, corn, sliced steak, pico de gallo, cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
6. Fold the sides of the tortilla in and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
7. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
8. Serve warm, garnished with fresh cilantro.
