Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger (optional)
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup steamed or roasted broccoli florets
  • ½ cup shredded carrots
  • ½ avocado, sliced
  • 2 tbsp chopped scallions or green onions
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • Optional: pickled ginger or radish slices

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, minced garlic, and black pepper. Add thinly sliced steak strips and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
  2. Cook 1 cup of brown rice or quinoa according to package instructions (about 20-25 minutes). Fluff with a fork and keep warm.
  3. Steam broccoli florets until tender-crisp (about 4-5 minutes) or roast in a 400°F oven for 15 minutes with a light drizzle of oil and salt.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, honey, water, and grated ginger until smooth. Adjust water to achieve a pourable consistency.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add marinated steak strips in a single layer and sear about 2 minutes per side until browned but tender. Remove from heat and let rest for a minute.
  6. Assemble the bowl by placing warm quinoa or brown rice as the base. Arrange broccoli, shredded carrots, and sliced avocado around the edges. Place seared steak strips in the center.
  7. Drizzle generously with miso-sesame dressing. Sprinkle chopped scallions and toasted sesame seeds on top.
  8. Add pickled ginger or radish slices if using. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Slice steak thinly against the grain for tenderness. Avoid overcrowding the pan when searing steak to get a good sear. Adjust water in dressing for desired consistency. Rest steak after cooking to keep it juicy. Store dressing separately to prevent sogginess. Can substitute steak with tofu or chicken for variations.
