The following is part of the industry standard definition of a stable approach fromthe Flight Safety Foundation.
Power setting is appropriate for the aircraft configuration and is not below the minimum power for approach as defined by the aircraft operating manual;
The appropriate power setting for flap 30 is not idle, it is somewhere above 50% for a 737.
