Ingredients
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
8 ounces lean sirloin steak, thinly sliced
8 ounces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
2 cups roasted broccoli, peppers, zucchini, or mixed vegetables
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped parsley or cilantro
Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
1. Add chicken, steak, and shrimp to separate small bowls so each protein cooks properly.
2. Season the chicken with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon olive oil.
3. Season the steak with soy sauce, black pepper, and 1 teaspoon olive oil.
4. Pat the shrimp dry, then season it with a pinch of smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and lemon juice.
5. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Cook the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until it reaches 165°F and turns golden on the edges. Transfer it to a plate.
7. Add the steak to the same skillet and sear for 2 to 4 minutes, depending on thickness. Transfer it to the plate with the chicken.
8. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until it turns pink and opaque.
9. Return the chicken and steak to the skillet, then toss everything together for 1 minute so the flavors blend.
10. Divide cooked rice or quinoa and roasted vegetables among serving bowls.
11. Top each bowl with the high protein meats mixture, Greek yogurt, herbs, and lemon wedges. Serve warm.
Notes
Use chicken breast, lean sirloin, and shrimp for a balanced mix of high protein meats.
Cut the chicken and steak into even pieces so they cook quickly and evenly.
Do not overcook shrimp because it turns rubbery fast.
For meal prep, store the rice, vegetables, and meats in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
Swap quinoa for brown rice if you want extra protein and fiber.
Use Greek yogurt as a creamy sauce, or mix it with lemon juice, garlic, and herbs for more flavor.
