Description

A healthy and satisfying beef and roasted root veggie power bowl featuring tender steak, caramelized sweet potatoes and beets, and a zesty vinaigrette.


Ingredients

For the Roasted Root Vegetables:
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
2 parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium red beets, peeled and cubed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried thyme

For the Beef and Assembly:
1 lb sirloin steak
Salt and pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cups cooked quinoa
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

For the Simple Vinaigrette:
¼ cup olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp honey
Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
On a large baking sheet, toss the sweet potato, parsnip, and beet cubes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, and the dried thyme until evenly coated.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 25-35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until tender and caramelized at the edges.
While the vegetables roast, pat the sirloin steak dry and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the steak for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 10 minutes.
While the steak rests, make the vinaigrette by whisking together the ¼ cup olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey in a small bowl; season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked quinoa among four bowls.
Top with the roasted root vegetables and sliced beef.
Garnish with crumbled feta cheese and fresh parsley.
Drizzle with the simple vinaigrette just before serving.

Notes

For the best texture, ensure the vegetables are in a single, uncrowded layer on the baking sheet. You can substitute the sirloin with flank steak or use chickpeas for a vegetarian version.
