📜 Ingredients
For the Beef:
1 lb (approx. 450g) Halal beef flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
For the Jammy Eggs:
2 large Eggs
For the Broccoli:
2 cups Broccoli florets, bite-sized
For the Assembly:
4 cups Mixed greens (spinach, kale, or arugula)
1 large Avocado, sliced
1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
For the Sesame-Ginger Dressing:
3 tablespoons Halal soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Tahini (sesame paste)
2 tablespoons Water (or more, to thin)
📝 Instructions
- Prepare the Jammy Eggs: Bring a small pot of water to a rolling boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and cook for exactly 7 minutes for perfect jammy yolks. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Once cool, peel carefully and halve.
- Cook the Broccoli: While the eggs cook, steam or blanch the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Alternatively, roast them at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes until slightly charred.
- Prepare the Beef: Pat the beef slices dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Sear the beef for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Remove from pan and let rest for a few minutes before slicing if not already pre-sliced.
- Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the halal soy sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, tahini, and water until smooth and well combined. Add more water if a thinner consistency is desired.
- Assemble the Bowls: Divide the mixed greens evenly into two large bowls. Artfully arrange the cooked beef, broccoli, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, and halved jammy eggs over the greens.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle generously with the homemade sesame-ginger dressing and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately and savor every nourishing bite!
💡 Chef's Tips
- For an extra flavor boost, marinate the beef in a tablespoon of the sesame-ginger dressing for at least 15 minutes before cooking. This infuses incredible taste!
- Feel free to customize your power bowl with other fresh veggies like shredded carrots, thinly sliced bell peppers, or cucumber for added crunch and vibrant color.
