Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 pound flank or sirloin steak

Grains

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice

Vegetables

  • Assorted stir-fried vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, carrots, and snap peas) – about 2 cups
  • Chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons

Garnishes and Condiments

  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • Kimchi (optional), 1/2 cup
  • Red pepper flakes (optional), 1/2 teaspoon
  • Sriracha (optional), to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rice: Cook jasmine rice according to package instructions until fluffy and fully cooked.
  2. Cook the steak: Grill or pan-sear the flank or sirloin steak over medium-high heat until desired doneness, about 4-5 minutes per side. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
  3. Stir-fry the vegetables: In a hot skillet, stir-fry the assorted vegetables with a little oil over medium-high heat until crisp-tender, about 4-6 minutes.
  4. Assemble the bowls: In serving bowls, place a scoop of jasmine rice as the base. Top with the stir-fried vegetables and sliced steak.
  5. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the top. Add kimchi on the side if desired. Optionally sprinkle with red pepper flakes or drizzle with sriracha for extra heat.

Notes

  • Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have—mushrooms, spinach, or broccoli all work well.
  • Resting the steak after cooking ensures it stays juicy and tender.
  • Kimchi adds a fermented tangy flavor but can be omitted for a milder bowl.
  • Adjust spice levels with red pepper flakes or sriracha according to your preference.
  • Use leftover rice to save time, reheating before assembling the bowls.
