Best practice for anchoring frames outside text frame?

Does the two-cell, borderless table approach not work for you? Put the step 
text in the left cell and the graphic (and possible caption) in the right 
cell.

You can further automate this with the AutoText plugin, by creating a sample 
table with the proper paragraph formats in the table cells. Then use 
AutoText to pop it into your document where you can insert the text and 
graphic.
