Cook the rice

  • Heat the BBQ on high (or pan on medium-high), making sure to oil the grill first.

  • Zest and juice the lemon.

  • In a medium pot, combine the rice, 1 ¼ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil.

  • Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 17 to 20 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed.

  • Remove from the heat, add ½ the lemon zest and ½ the lemon juice, and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Fluff the rice.

Grill the steaks

  • Meanwhile, pat the steaks* dry; season with ½ the spices and S&P.

  • Add to the BBQ (or pan) and grill, 3 to 5 min. per side, until cooked as desired (to ensure a consistent temperature throughout, turn over at least twice).

  • Transfer to a cutting board and let rest before slicing.

Grill the green beans

  • Meanwhile, remove the stem ends of the green beans.

  • Mince the garlic.

  • Place the green beans and ⅔ of the garlic on a large piece of lightly oiled aluminum foil. Add a drizzle of oil, 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions), the remaining spices and S&P.

  • Fold the edges over to seal. Wrap in a second piece of aluminum foil.

  • Add the foil package to the BBQ (or sauté in a pan) and grill, rotating occasionally, 6 to 8 min., until the green beans are crisp-tender.
