Ingredients

    • 1 cup short-grain brown rice
    • 2 cups water
    • 3 scallions, thinly sliced
    • 8 ounces grass-fed sirloin steak, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
    • 2 zucchini, halved and cut into spears
    • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
    • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
    • 1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes

Directions

  1. Bring rice and water to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Cook 45 minutes, until tender. Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Stir in scallions.
  2. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread beef on skewers. Season beef and zucchini with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil.
