Learn how to make delicious Steak and Garlic Butter Rice Bowl. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Here’s a list of what you’ll need to create this delicious meal. Remember, it’s all about using what you have, so feel free to make substitutions where needed.

  • 1 pound flank steak (or any tender cut you prefer)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup jasmine rice (or your favorite variety)
  • 2 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Substitution tip: If you’re out of chicken broth, water with a bouillon cube works just as well. And if flank steak isn’t your thing, sirloin or even chicken breast can be a great swap!

Instructions

Ready to get cooking? Let’s walk through each step to make sure your meal is as delicious as possible.

  1. Start by patting your steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the steak and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove the steak and let it rest on a cutting board.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining olive oil. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
  4. Add the rice to the skillet, stirring well to coat the grains with the garlicky oil. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  5. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
  6. Stir in the butter, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Fluff the rice with a fork and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  7. Slice the steak against the grain and arrange it over the rice. Garnish with fresh parsley if using.

Pro tip: Always let your steak rest before slicing. It’s a trick I learned watching my dad, ensuring the juices stay locked in for maximum flavor.
