Equipment

  • 1 marinade bowl
  • 1 skillet or grill pan
  • 1 rice cooker or pot
  • 1 cutting board
  • 1 measuring spoons
  • 4 serving bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sirloin steak
  • 2 cups cooked rice jasmine or short-grain preferred
  • 1 cup sliced bell peppers red, yellow, or green
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds optional
  • to taste chopped green onions for garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and ground ginger to prepare the marinade for the steak.
  • Place the sirloin steak in the marinade, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor.
  • While the steak is marinating, cook the rice according to package instructions if not already prepared.
  • Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and shredded carrots. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender, then add the baby spinach and cook just until wilted.
  • To assemble the bowls, place cooked rice at the bottom of each bowl. Top with the sliced steak, sautéed vegetables, and drizzle with any remaining marinade if desired.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if using.

Notes

You can customize the toppings by adding avocado, kimchi, or other vegetables of your choice.
For a spicier version, consider adding sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of sriracha.
This bowl can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat before serving.
