Ingredients
Scale
1 pound Flank, Ribeye, or New York Strip steak (sirloin as a budget substitute)
2 medium Zucchini, sliced
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard (optional)
1 cup Sour Cream or Plain Greek Yogurt (plant-based yogurt for dairy-free)
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Chives or Parsley), chopped
2 cups Cooked Jasmine Rice (or mashed potatoes/cauliflower rice)
Instructions
- Preheat grill or oven to medium-high heat (400°F). Season steak with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and 1 tbsp olive oil. Toss zucchini with remaining oil.
- Grill or bake steak for 4-6 mins per side for medium-rare. Cook zucchini for 8-10 mins until tender and charred. Let steak rest 5 mins, then slice.
- Make sauce by combining sour cream/yogurt, herbs, and Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble bowls with rice, sliced steak, and zucchini. Top generously with creamy herb sauce.
Notes
- Let the steak rest before slicing to retain juices.
- Meal prep friendly: store components separately for up to 4 days.
- For a lower-carb option, use cauliflower rice or mash.
