Easy columbian skirt steak with tomato garlic and onion yellow rice

Take skirt steak and marinade in the following mixture:

1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup soy sauce
4 scallions, washed and cut in 1/2
2 large cloves garlic
1/4 cup lime juice
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar

The longer you can marinade the better, but do it for at least one hour.

Ingredients for rice:
Yellow Rice
Tomatos, diced, chunked, whatever
2 cloves garlic
A cup of chopped onion
Some chopped flat parsley

While the meat marinades get the rice cooking, it should take about 25 minutes so if your meat is marinaded, you can have this entire meal done in 30 minutes.

When the rice has about 10 minutes left, pour in your can (undrained) of diced/chunked tomatoes into a pan over high heat. Mix in the onions and garlic. Heat until the onions are transcluscent and any of the moisture from the tomatoes juices has evaporated. Now simply mix this in with the rice.

When the rice has about 7 minutes left, go ahead and sear the meat on both sides. It shouldn't take more than 2 minutes per side. Remove and cover with foil.

Once the rice and your tomato mixture is done, simply test your meat for done ness, slice into 1/2" pieces and top the rice with the meat, sprinkling some of the parsley over the top.

Easy.
