Best Broccoli Grain Bowl With Steak Recipes

PORK AND BROCCOLI GRAIN BOWL

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Halve the pork tenderloin crosswise, then halve lengthwise. Rub two-thirds of the garlic into the meat along with 1 teaspoon each oregano and cumin and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Set aside 10 minutes.
• Toss the sweet potato and broccoli in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast on the upper oven rack, stirring once, until lightly browned and tender, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the quinoa as the label directs.
• While the vegetables and quinoa cook, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Flip the pork and transfer the skillet to the lower oven rack. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F to 145 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Stir the orange juice, vinegar, red pepper flakes, remaining garlic, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon oregano in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Divide the quinoa and vegetables among bowls. Slice the pork and add to the bowls. Drizzle with the orange sauce.

ROASTED-MUSHROOM-AND-BROCCOLI GRAIN BOWLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425.
• Make the vegetables: Cut the broccoli into bite-size florets. Peel the stems, and cut these into 3/4-inch pieces. In a large bowl, season the broccoli well with salt, and toss with 3 or 4 tablespoons of olive oil to coat. Spread it out in one layer on a sheet pan. Season and oil the mushrooms the same way, and spread them out on a separate sheet pan. Roast the vegetables until the mushrooms are browned but still juicy and the broccoli has charred edges, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Make the omelet ribbons: In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a couple pinches of salt. Heat a large nonstick sauté pan over medium heat until hot. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of oil. When the oil slips around the pan like water, add half the egg, and swirl to coat the pan. Cook until set, about 30 seconds. Use a spatula to roll the omelet up like a jellyroll toward the edge of the pan, then turn it out onto a cutting board. Repeat with the rest of the egg. Slice the omelets into 1/4-inch-thick ribbons.
• In a mixing bowl, season and dress the warm grains with salt and the dressing to taste. Divide among bowls. Top the grains with some mushrooms and broccoli, drizzling on a little more dressing. Top with the omelet ribbons and your crunchy garnish, and eat. Use the leftovers to make this again.

ROASTED BROCCOLI GRAIN BOWL WITH NOOCH DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees. Place two baking sheets in the oven to heat.
• In a large bowl (or two if you need), toss broccoli and cauliflower florets, stems and leaves, and the brussels sprouts with enough olive oil to coat (around ½ cup). Season generously with salt and pepper. (Don't wash the bowl.) Roast on the heated sheets, rotating the pans and switching racks halfway through but leaving the vegetables themselves untouched, until browned and crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the nutritional yeast, ¼ cup water, remaining ¼ cup olive oil, the lemon juice, mustard and garlic powder. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the grains to the large bowl. Season and dress the grains with salt, lemon zest, and some of the nutritional yeast dressing to taste.
• Top the grains with the roasted vegetables, then drizzle with some of the dressing. Top with the almonds.

GRILLED STEAK AND BROCCOLI GRAIN BOWL

Steps:

• 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.
