Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Add the pork mince to the skillet, using a wooden spoon to break it up. Cook until the mince is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Stir in the ground cumin and smoked paprika, seasoning with salt and pepper. Mix in the black beans and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  • Prepare the burrito bowls by dividing the cooked brown rice among four bowls. Top each with the pork mixture, cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, corn kernels, and a generous sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
  • Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice over each bowl and adjust seasoning as needed.

Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, add a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of queso fresco on top. Substitute ground beef or turkey for the pork for a different taste profile. To make this dish vegetarian, simply replace the pork with additional beans and vegetables.
