Print Recipe

A fresh and quick bowl filled with juicy steak, vibrant vegetables, and tangy feta, ready in about 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) sirloin or flank steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp dried oregano (or 1 tbsp fresh)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or rice
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup Kalamata olives, halved
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 cups mixed greens or baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup tzatziki or plain yogurt (optional)
  • Red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub on steak and let sit for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Prepare quinoa or rice according to package instructions. Keep warm.
  3. Warm a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp olive oil.
  4. Add steak to the hot pan and cook for 3-5 minutes per side for medium rare (cook time depends on steak thickness; aim for 130-135°F).
  5. Move steak to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain.
  6. While steak rests, chop tomatoes, cucumber, and onion. Crumble feta.
  7. In serving bowls, place quinoa or rice, then layer with mixed greens, veggies, olives, and sliced steak. Spoon tzatziki or yogurt over top, and sprinkle with feta and red pepper flakes.

Notes

Let the steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
