Beef Shawarma Bowl is a quick recipe that scales well for meal prep. This recipe makes 4 servings, each delivering 36g of protein and 480 calories โ ideal for tracking macros across the week. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For batch cooking, brown a double portion of the protein and refrigerate the plain cooked meat separately from the sauce โ this keeps textures better over 4 days.
Cook the protein and rice/grains ahead and refrigerate separately for up to 3 days. Reheat protein in a pan with a splash of water, then assemble bowls to order.
Ribeye has the most flavor, sirloin is leaner. For thin-slicing, flank or skirt steak work great. Freeze the steak for 20 minutes first for easier thin slicing.
The pan must be hot before the protein goes in โ add oil and wait until it shimmers. Pat the protein completely dry first (moisture prevents browning). Don't crowd the pan; cook in batches with space between each piece.
