Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak or skirt steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tbsp lime juice or vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked rice, quinoa, or farro
  • 2 cups mixed greens or shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 avocado, sliced or 1/2 cup guacamole
  • 1/2 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or grilled)
  • 1/2 cup black beans
  • 1/4 cup red onion, sliced
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese or crumbled feta
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
  • Optional sauce: sour cream, Greek yogurt, chipotle mayo, salsa, or chimichurri
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic, soy sauce, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add steak and marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to 4 hours).
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill steak for 4–5 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Let rest 5–10 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
  3. While the steak rests, prepare the grains, greens, and toppings.
  4. Assemble each bowl with a base of grains and greens. Add sliced steak and arrange toppings as desired.
  5. Drizzle with sauce, sprinkle with herbs, and serve with lime wedges.

Notes

  • Swap steak for grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu for variation.
  • Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
  • Roasted sweet potatoes or grilled zucchini are great veggie additions.
  • Slice steak thinly against the grain to keep it tender.
  • Chimichurri or chipotle mayo adds bold flavor to the bowl.
