Ingredients

For the Steak

• 8 oz (225 g) sirloin steak
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

For the Plate

• 2 large eggs
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• ½ cup cucumber, sliced
• ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cup mixed greens or baby spinach
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
• 1 teaspoon lemon or lime juice

Optional Additions

• ½ cup cooked black beans
• ½ cup cooked quinoa
• Crumbled feta cheese
• Hot sauce
• Sliced jalapeños

Directions

1. Season the Steak

Pat the steak dry with paper towels.

Rub both sides with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

2. Cook the Steak

Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the steak and cook for approximately 3–5 minutes per side, depending on thickness and your preferred doneness.

For food safety, use a thermometer and cook according to your preferred safe temperature.

Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.

3. Cook the Eggs

While the steak rests, prepare the eggs in the same skillet.

Cook them sunny-side up, over-easy, scrambled, or poached—whatever you prefer.

4. Prepare the Vegetables

Arrange the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and avocado on a large plate.

Drizzle the avocado and vegetables with lemon or lime juice.

5. Slice the Steak

Cut the rested steak against the grain into thin strips or bite-sized pieces.

6. Assemble the Power Plate

Arrange the sliced steak and eggs alongside the avocado and vegetables.

Add black beans or quinoa if desired.

Finish with fresh herbs, feta, hot sauce, or jalapeños.

Serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

• Sirloin, ribeye, or strip steak can all work well.
• Let the steak rest before slicing to help retain its juices.
• Slice against the grain for a more tender bite.
• Add roasted sweet potatoes for a more substantial meal.
• For meal prep, keep the avocado separate until serving to prevent browning.
• Adjust the seasoning and toppings to suit your taste.
