Method
- Pat the steak completely dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Let rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream or Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, chopped fresh herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth. Refrigerate the sauce while you prepare the other components.
- Toss zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl, ensuring they're well coated.
- Heat your grill pan or cast iron skillet over high heat with a small amount of oil. Once very hot, add the seasoned steak.
- Cook steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (130°F internal temperature), or adjust time based on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check.
- Remove steak from heat and let rest for 5-10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- While steak rests, grill zucchini slices in the same pan for 2-3 minutes per side until tender with light char marks. Set aside.
- Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips.
- Build your bowls: Start with cooked rice or mashed potatoes as the base. Layer grilled zucchini on top, add sliced steak, and drizzle generously with creamy herb sauce.
- Garnish with extra fresh herbs and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
Always rest your steak after cooking to keep it juicy. Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness. Make the sauce ahead of time for deeper flavor. Best steak choices: flank steak, ribeye, or New York strip. Store components separately in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
