Grilled Garlic-Ginger Steak Skewers & Zucchini with RiceGrilled Garlic-Ginger Steak Skewers & Zucchini with Rice — a 45-minute dinner recipe with 10 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

3 cloves garlic

3 (2 ½ cm) pieces ginger root

1 ½ cups jasmine rice

1.02 kg striploin (New York strip) steak

6 medium zucchini squash

black pepper

crushed red pepper

extra virgin olive oil

salt

soy sauce

Instructions

If using wooden skewers, place 12-18 skewers in a shallow dish of water to soak until you are ready to use them.

Using a strainer or colander, rinse the rice under cold, running water, then drain and transfer to a medium saucepan. Add water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Once the liquid comes to a boil, stir the mixture, cover the saucepan, and reduce heat to low. Cook rice until liquid is fully absorbed, 15-18 minutes. Once done, remove rice from the heat and let it stand, still covered, for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash, dry, peel, and mince ginger; peel and mince garlic. Place both in a large bowl along with soy sauce, oil, salt, and crushed red pepper, then stir to combine the marinade.

Pat steak dry with paper towels, cut into 1-inch cubes, and add to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat and set aside.

Wash and dry zucchini. Using a clean cutting board, trim and slice lengthwise into ¼-inch thick planks. Transfer to a large plate, drizzle with oil, then season with salt and pepper.

Preheat a grill pan, outdoor grill, or regular skillet over medium-high heat.

Once the pan is hot, working in batches, add zucchini and grill until charred and tender, 2-3 minutes per side. Return to the plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil.

Meanwhile, thread steak onto skewers and place on another plate. (If you don't have skewers, you can cook the steak directly on the grill pan.)

When the zucchini is done, add the skewers to the pan. Working in batches, cook, turning occasionally, until the steak reaches desired doneness, 6-10 minutes. Add to the plate with the zucchini.

To serve, divide rice, zucchini, and steak skewers between plates. Enjoy!
