Ingredients
1cupbrown rice
1 1/2lbbroccoli,cut into thin florets
1tbspolive oil
1lbskirt steak
1cupcherry or grape tomatoes,cut in half
2scallions,thinly sliced
kosher salt and black pepper
Dressing
4tbspolive oil
2tbspred wine vinegar
1/2cupblue cheese dressing
Instructions
Cook rice according to package directions in salted water. When done fluff up and let cool a bit. Use the rice either warm or room temperature.
Heat a grill on high until fully hot. Toss broccoli with olive oil and some salt and spread it out in a grilling basket. Grill covered, stirring occasionally, until crisp tender and somewhat blackened. Adjust the heat to keep the grill at about 400F. Set aside to cool.
Sprinkle the skirt steak with salt and pepper. Grill on high, uncovered, 5 minutes per side or until ~150F and a bit pink in the middle. Move steak to a cutting board and slice thinly.
Mix together all the dressing ingredients until fully combined.
Make dinner bowls with rice, broccoli, steak, tomatoes, and scallions. Top with dressing and serve.
Notes
Broccoli: I find that a grill temperature of about 400-450F when covered works well to cook the florets through without burning them.
Blue Cheese: Use your favorite thick bottled dressing or make your own blue cheese dressing.
Rice: For a quicker cook time switch to from brown to white.
