Ingredients

Scale

For the Steak:

  • 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

For the Zucchini:

  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt to taste

For the Bowl:

  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa (or rice/farro)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley or chives
  • Optional: splash of lemon juice for sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak: Bring the steak to room temperature. Pat dry and rub with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
  2. Grill the Zucchini: Preheat grill or grill pan over high heat. Toss zucchini slices with 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Grill for 2–3 minutes per side until tender and charred. Set aside.
  3. Grill the Steak: Grill the steak for 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness. Let rest for 5–10 minutes.
  4. Cook the Quinoa: Cook quinoa (or chosen grain) according to package instructions.
  5. Prepare the Creamy Sauce: In a bowl, mix sour cream or yogurt with Dijon mustard, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and chopped herbs. Add lemon juice if desired.
  6. Assemble the Bowls: Slice the steak against the grain. Layer grains in bowls, top with zucchini and steak, and drizzle with creamy sauce.

Notes

  • Make sure to let the steak rest before slicing to ensure juiciness.
  • You can customize the bowl with additional toppings like avocado, cherry tomatoes, or roasted peppers.
