In a #small pot{}, combine @jasmine rice{¾%cup}, @water{¾%cup}, and a pinch of @salt{1%tsp}. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender ~{15%minutes}. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

While rice cooks, wash and dry all produce. Finely dice @tomato{1}. Halve, peel, and cut @red onion{1} into ½-inch-thick wedges; mince one wedge until you have 1 tablespoon. Zest and quarter @lime{1}. Core, deseed, and dice @long green pepper{1} into ½-inch pieces. Mince @cilantro{1%unit}. Pat @diced steak{10%oz} dry with paper towels.

In a #small bowl{}, combine tomato, minced onion, and juice from half the lime; season with salt. Add @smoky red pepper crema{2%tbsp} to a separate small bowl. Stir in water 1%tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

Heat a large drizzle of @cooking oil{3%tbsp} in a #medium pan{} over medium-high heat. Add poblano and onion wedges. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly charred ~{7%minutes}. Transfer veggies to a plate.

Add another drizzle of oil to same pan; increase heat to high. Add steak and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Stir in @Tex-Mex Paste{1%unit} and ¼%cup water until combined. Bring to a simmer and cook until mixture is saucy and steak is cooked through ~{1%minute}. Turn off heat.
