Method
 

  1. Pat the steak dry with paper towels.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, steak seasoning, and smoked paprika.
  3. Rub the mixture all over the steak, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  4. Let the steak sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  6. In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  7. Add the rice and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly toasted.
  8. Pour in the water or chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  9. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  10. Fluff with a fork and season with salt to taste.
  11. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F).
  12. Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired level of doneness.
  13. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy. 130-135°F for medium-rare, 140-145°F for medium, and 150-155°F for medium-well.
  14. Once the steak is cooked to your liking, remove it from the grill and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
  15. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
  16. While the steak is resting, heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
  17. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and then add the sliced bell pepper and red onion.
  18. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they start to soften.
  19. Add the diced zucchini and halved cherry tomatoes.
  20. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  21. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  22. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt or sour cream, lime juice, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  23. Stir well to combine. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper if you want a little heat.
  24. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  25. Divide the rice among bowls.
  26. Top with the grilled steak, sautéed veggies, and diced avocado.
  27. Drizzle generously with the sauce.
  28. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.
  29. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Feel free to experiment with different cuts of steak, rice varieties, and vegetables. Add a dollop of sriracha or a drizzle of honey to the sauce for a personalized touch. The rice, veggies, and sauce can be prepped a day in advance and stored separately in the refrigerator. Marinating the steak ahead of time enhances flavor.
