Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: Approximately 20 minutes

Ingredients

For the Steak

• 5 oz sirloin steak (raw weight)
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 1 tsp unsalted butter

For the Bowl

• 1/4 avocado, sliced

• 2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
• 2 tbsp sliced Kalamata olives

• A few thin slices of red onion

Instructions

1. Season the steak. Pat the steak dry and season both sides with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
2. Sear the steak. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for approximately 3–5 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
3. Add the butter. During the final minute of cooking, add butter to the skillet and spoon it over the steak. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.
4. Assemble the bowl. Add cooked couscous to a bowl. Arrange sliced steak, avocado, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, feta, olives and red onion on top.
5. Finish and serve. Spoon tzatziki over the steak and enjoy!
