Juicy steak served over cauliflower rice or greens, topped with fresh veggies, olives, feta cheese, and a zesty lemon-olive oil dressing. A low-carb, keto-friendly Mediterranean style bowl that’s quick, filling, and packed with flavor.
10–12 oz ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak
3 tbsp olive oil (divided)
2–3 garlic cloves, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp dried oregano (or 1 tbsp fresh)
Pinch red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper, to taste
2 cups cauliflower rice (or leafy greens)
1 small cucumber, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
¼ small red onion, thinly sliced
6–8 kalamata olives, pitted and halved
¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Marinate Steak: Mix 2 tbsp olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub onto steak. Let sit 20–30 minutes.
Cook Base: Sauté cauliflower rice in 1 tbsp olive oil for 5–7 minutes until tender. Or wash and dry greens.
Prep Veggies: Dice cucumber, slice tomatoes, onion, and olives. Toss lightly with olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Cook Steak: Heat a skillet until hot. Sear steak 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Rest 5 minutes before slicing.
Assemble Bowl: Add cauliflower rice or greens as base. Top with veggies, steak slices, feta, and parsley. Drizzle with lemon-olive oil dressing.
Swap feta for goat cheese if you prefer creamier cheese.
Tzatziki or tahini sauce can replace the lemon-olive oil dressing.
Meal prep tip: Store steak, base, and veggies separately to keep fresh.
