assembly
- 16 halved cherry tomatoes (tossed in fresh minced oregano, optional)
- 4 thinly sliced radishes
- 1/2 cup crumbled cotija
- 1 thinly sliced avocado
- 1/8 thinly sliced red onion
- 1 1/2 cups shredded romaine hearts

For carne asada: Make according to recipe linked above.
For rice: Place stock, garlic and salt into a blender and blend for 2 minutes.
Pour oil into a medium pot and place over medium-high heat. Add rice and toast for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour garlic infused stock into the pot with rice and bring to a boil.
Lower the heat to medium and bring stock to a hard simmer. Partially cover and continue to simmer until the stock has been absorbed and the rice has cooked through.
Add green onion to the rice, season with salt and pepper and fluff together with a fork. Set aside.
To assemble: Scoop some of green onion rice into each bowl, top each bowl with about 6 ounces of carne asada and add remaining ingredients. Sprinkle each bowl a few dashes of hot sauce, a drizzle of crema and a squeeze of lime, if using, and serve.
