Steak and Marinade
- 1 lb Flank steak (450g)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Corn Salsa
- 1 cup Fresh corn kernels (or canned corn, drained)
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 Lime, juiced
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Creamy Garlic Sauce
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Other Ingredients
- 2 ripe Avocados, sliced
- 2 Large eggs
- Cooked rice or quinoa, to serve
- Lime wedges, for garnish
- Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture all over the flank steak thoroughly. Let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors.
- Prepare the Corn Salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine fresh corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, finely chopped red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to allow flavors to meld.
- Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Set aside.
- Grill the Steak: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated flank steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until it reaches your preferred doneness. Remove the steak and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain to keep it tender.
- Prepare Soft-Boiled Eggs: Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently add the eggs and boil for 6-7 minutes for a soft-boiled center. Remove the eggs from boiling water, cool immediately in cold water, peel, and set aside.
- Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, place a layer of cooked rice or quinoa. Top with sliced grilled steak, avocado slices, corn salsa, and halved soft-boiled eggs. Drizzle generously with the creamy garlic sauce.
- Serve: Garnish with lime wedges and serve immediately for a fresh and satisfying meal.
Notes
- Marinate the steak longer for deeper flavor—up to 2 hours or overnight in the fridge.
- If you don’t have a grill, a grill pan or cast-iron skillet on the stovetop works well.
- Use canned corn if fresh corn is out of season; drain well to avoid sogginess.
- Adjust the cooking time of eggs depending on your preferred yolk consistency.
- For a lighter option, use low-fat Greek yogurt and reduce mayonnaise.
- Serve with quinoa for a higher protein and gluten-free alternative to rice.
