Bake Meal, Heat Rice, and Make Lime Crema

Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.While meal bakes, carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Combine rice, 2 Tbsp. water, and garlic salt in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave covered until heated through, 2-3 minutes.While rice heats, halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.In a mixing bowl, combine 1 tsp. lime juice, sour cream, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.Carefully remove rice from microwave and tray from oven. Rest, 3 minutes.Fluff rice with a fork.To serve, top rice with vegetables and steak. Slice steak, if desired. Garnish with melted butter from tray (to taste), lime crema, cheese, and tortilla strips.
