Step 6

Fry for 1 to 2 minutes on one side and then another minute on the other side or until caramelized and browned. Season with salt to taste.

When the rice is ready, drain and return the rice back to the pot. Season with a sprinkle of salt and stir to combine.

Step 12

Serve each ingredient separately in serving bowls or plates together with the tomatoes, avocado slices, and chimichurri sauce. Assemble the bowls at the table.
