Description
A vibrant and flavorful Mediterranean Steak Bowl featuring grilled sirloin, fresh vegetables, and creamy tzatziki sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb sirloin steak
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 cup cooked grains (e.g., brown rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice)
- Fresh toppings: cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, kalamata olives, and feta cheese
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup cucumber (grated)
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp fresh dill (chopped)
Instructions
- Marinate the steak: In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Coat the sirloin steak in this flavorful marinade and stick it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Prepare the tzatziki sauce: While the steak marinates, mix together Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped dill in a separate bowl. Chill this creamy delight in the fridge while you cook the steak.
- Cook the steak: Heat your skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a perfect medium-rare finish. Once cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing against the grain.
- Assemble your bowl: Start with a generous scoop of your cooked grains as the base. Add the sliced steak on top and then pile on all those vibrant, fresh veggies you’ve prepared. Drizzle with your cooling tzatziki sauce and an optional vinaigrette.
Notes
Serve with warm pita bread or a light Greek salad. For storage, keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
