1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound beef skirt, top round, or flank steak (3/4-inch thick)
2 cups cooked rice, cooled to room temperature

1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
1 2 1/4 ounce can sliced ripe olives, drained
