  3. Make the vinaigrette by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  4. Cook the marinated steak in a hot skillet for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let it rest before slicing.
  5. Assemble the bowls by layering cooked grains, sliced steak, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and chickpeas. Garnish with feta and herbs, then drizzle with tzatziki and vinaigrette.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy your Mediterranean Steak Bowl, customizing as desired.
