Chipotle Shrimp Burrito Bowl Food

CHIPOTLE SHRIMP BURRITOS WITH SIMPLE AVOCADO CREMA

Steps:

• Blend chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, garlic, honey, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and cinnamon in a food processor until smooth. Place shrimp in a gallon Ziploc freezer bag with chipotle mixture and marinate in fridge for 1-2 hours.
• Meanwhile, place avocado halves, crema and Hatch green chile enchilada sauce in a blender and mix to combine. Add a tablespoon of water or more enchilada sauce to desired consistency. Refrigerate until ready to assemble burritos.
• Cook rice according to package directions. Fluff rice and add the juice of one lime and cilantro leaves. Keep warm on low heat.
• Bring a heavy bottom skillet or cast iron skillet to medium high heat and add remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot add shrimp in batches taking care not to overcrowd pan. Cook for 2 minutes each side then flip and cook for an additional minute. Remove from pan and continue until all shrimp are cooked.
• To assemble burritos, microwave tortillas for 30 seconds. Place ¾ cup cliantro lime rice on warmed tortilla, add 10-12 shrimp per burrito and top with avocado crema. Squeeze fresh lime and garnish with additional cilantro leaves. Roll into burrito and top with additional avocado crema as desired.

CHIPOTLE BURRITO BOWL WITH BLISTERED VEGGIES AND MARINATED STEAK

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whiz together the olive oil, vinegar, lime juice, cumin, oregano, salt, dates, garlic and chipotle pepper in a blender until it's well combined and thick. This dressing is particularly thick, which I love, but if it feels to thick you can thin it out with a bit of water. Set dressing aside until you're ready to eat. There will be leftover dressing that you can keep for your next salad!
• For the steak and marinade: In the same blender (it's ok if there is a little dressing at the bottom), add the oil, cilantro, red onion, tomato paste, cumin seeds, dried chipotle pepper, salt, cayenne, pepper and garlic and blend until it's thick. Give it a taste, make sure you're happy with it and then pour it into a resealable plastic bag with the meat, refrigerate and marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to overnight.
• When you're ready to grill the steak, select a grill pan (or use an outdoor grill) and grill over a high heat until there are rich beautiful char marks, 4 minutes, and then flip and cook 2 to 4 minutes on the second side, depending on how rare you like your meat. For a medium rare, cook it 2 minutes, if you like it more well done, do 4 minutes. Allow the meat to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing into strips.
• For the roasted veggies: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the olive oil, dried chipotle pepper, coriander, cumin, oregano, black pepper and salt and give it a good mix. In batches, add the bell peppers, cauliflower and onion and toss to coat. Distribute the vegetables evenly between both baking sheets, leaving room between all the vegetables to ensure they don't steam while they roast. Roast until fully cooked and the peppers begin to char, 20 to 25 minutes.
• To assemble: Toss the lettuce and cabbage with a touch of salt and 2 tablespoons of dressing. Continue adding dressing until you're pleased with the taste of the greens. Put the greens at the bottom of 4 bowls, top with roasted veggies, steak and guacamole if using. Finish with a touch of cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime. If you're not prepping this dish for 4, just use what you need and put the rest in resealable containers for the next day.
• Combine the avocado, chives, white onion, lime juice and salt in a mixing bowl. I prefer the guacamole on the chunkier side, so I gently stir until combined, but you can also mash the avocado if you like it creamier.

Spoon the crème fraîche on top, then serve with the coriander and a sprinkling of chilli flakes, if you want it spicy. Serve the extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing over, if you like.
