Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound sirloin, flank steak, or ribeye
- 2 to 3 cup butternut squash, peeled and cubed
- 1 to 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
- 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread the squash evenly on a baking sheet. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
- While the squash is roasting, prepare your steak. Generously rub your choice of steak with salt, black pepper, rosemary, and thyme.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a splash of olive oil, ensuring it’s hot before adding the steak. Sear the steak for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let the steak rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
- Start by adding a generous scoop of roasted butternut squash to each bowl. Top with sliced steak, and sprinkle over the minced garlic. Add any optional ingredients you like—cooked quinoa, fresh greens, or hummus.
