Instructions

Step 1/4

Cook the Orzo

  • 60g Orzo Pasta, Dry

Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo and cook according to package instructions (about 8-10 minutes) until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool.

Step 2/4

Prepare and Cook the Steak

  • 150g Sirloin or Ribeye Steak
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil

Season the steak with salt and pepper to taste. Heat a olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Step 3/4

Prepare the Salad

  • 40g Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/4 Medium Cucumber
  • 1/4 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1/2 Small Red Onion
  • 20g Feta Cheese
  • 5g Fresh Parsley

In a large bowl, combine the cooked orzo, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, sliced red bell pepper, sliced red onion, feta cheese, and finely sliced parsley.

Step 4/4

Make the Dressing and Assemble

  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Top the salad with the sliced steak and serve immediately.
