Ingredients
For the Steak
- 1 pound flank, ribeye, New York strip, or sirloin steak
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
For the Zucchini
- 2 medium zucchini, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Sauce
- 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (chives or parsley), chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Base
- 2 cups cooked rice or mashed potatoes
Instructions
1. Pat the steak dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Let rest at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together sour cream or Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard if using, fresh herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to chill.
3. Toss sliced zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes per side until tender and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
4. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates if needed.
5. Cook the steak for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
6. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
7. Assemble the bowls by adding rice or mashed potatoes as the base, topping with grilled zucchini and sliced steak.
8. Drizzle generously with the chilled herb sauce and serve immediately.
Notes
For best results, let the steak rest before slicing to retain juices.
Store components separately for meal prep and assemble just before serving.
The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
