A few months back, I was frantically searching for ways to simplify my life. Even my kitchen routines received a dramatic culling; nothing was too precious or too small to be immune.
It was then I asked myself: Why do I need to chop garlic for every meal? I decided this tedious task provided too insignificant an impact to continue daily, and mostly avoided it — and garlic — for several months. It took weeks to sink in, but I began to realize many of my dishes were a little flat, lacking the allium’s savory undercurrent.
To celebrate both getting my life (somewhat) under control and garlic’s return to my kitchen prep, I made these garlicky steak and veggie bowls. Although they require chopping six cloves of garlic, they’re a speedy weeknight meal to honor this ubiquitous yet special seasoning.
