Marinate Steak: Whisk marinade ingredients, coat steak, and marinate for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
Prepare Sauces: Mix tzatziki and refrigerate. Whisk vinaigrette in a separate bowl.
Cook Steak: Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Sear steak 4–5 minutes per side for medium. Let rest, then slice thinly.
Assemble Bowls: Layer grains or cauliflower rice, add steak slices, top with veggies, olives, and feta.
Finish: Drizzle with vinaigrette and a spoonful of tzatziki. Garnish with herbs and enjoy warm or chilled.
Use fresh lemon juice and herbs for the brightest flavor.
For low-carb, skip grains and double the veggies.
Great for meal prep — keep ingredients separate and assemble before eating.
