- 2 tablespoons olive oil

steps
- 1.
Start by cooking the millet: rinse it under cold water. In a saucepan, combine millet and water or broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes until fluffy.
- 2.
While the millet cooks, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef steak with salt, pepper, and oregano. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking. Let it rest before slicing.

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté the sliced onion until translucent, then add the green beans. Cook until beans are bright green and tender, about 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine the cooked millet, sautéed green beans, diced cucumbers, bell peppers, and dill pickles.

Slice the beef and arrange it on top of the millet mixture. Garnish with fresh dill before serving.
