Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub the marinade all over the steak and let it sit for 15–30 minutes.

3. In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well incorporated. Refrigerate the tzatziki until ready to serve.

4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey (if using), garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to create a bright and tangy dressing.

5. Divide the cooked grains and roasted chickpeas (if using) among the serving bowls. Top with the sliced steak, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, feta (if using), and fresh herbs.
