- Toss the sliced zucchini with olive oil, garlic, salt, and black pepper.
- Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
- Cook the steak for 4 to 6 minutes per side or until it reaches your preferred doneness.
- Grill the zucchini for 3 to 4 minutes per side until tender and lightly charred.
- Let the steak rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into thin strips against the grain.
- Divide the cooked rice evenly into serving bowls.
- Arrange the grilled steak, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and feta cheese over the rice.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use quinoa or cauliflower rice instead of rice for a different texture or lower-carb option.
- Garlic yogurt sauce or chimichurri pairs wonderfully with these bowls.
- Roasted bell peppers, mushrooms, or corn make great additional vegetables.
- Always slice steak against the grain to keep it tender.
- Add fresh avocado after reheating for the best texture and flavor.
