  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Gather these ingredients to embark on a delicious journey inspired by the Mediterranean:

  • 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Optional: hummus or tzatziki for serving

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create a delicious steak bowl that will transport you to the Mediterranean coast:

  1. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. This marinade will imbue the steak with unbeatable flavor.
  2. Place the flank steak in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over it, and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to soak up all the goodness. Meanwhile, you can prepare the other ingredients.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your preferred doneness.
  4. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it against the grain. This step ensures maximum tenderness.
  5. Assemble your bowls by layering cooked quinoa at the base, followed by slices of steak, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta.
  6. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and a dollop of hummus or tzatziki if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
