The Recipe Instructions |
|||
Ingredients
1 lb top sirloin steak - (to 1 1/4)
1/2 cup beef broth
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp butter
2 tsp peanut or olive oil
1 tsp Asian (toasted) sesame oil - (to 2)
2 green onions - (to 3), thinly sliced, or
cut lengthwise into slivers
Directions
Cut steak into 4 equal portions. Place each piece between 2 pieces of
plastic wrap. With a heavy, flat-sided mallet, pound meat firmly but
gently all over to a thickness of 1/3 to 1/2 inch.
In a small bowl, stir together broth, sherry, soy sauce, ginger, and
cornstarch. Set aside.
Melt butter in oil in a wide nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat.
When butter sizzles, add steak. Cook, turning once, until steak is well
browned on both sides and still pink in center; cut to test (2 to 3
minutes). Transfer to a platter and keep warm.
Stir broth mixture, then add to pan, increase heat to high, and bring to a
boil, stirring. Then continue to boil and stir until slightly thickened (1
to 2 minutes).
Pour sauce over steak; drizzle with sesame oil to taste, then sprinkle with
green onions.
This recipe yields 4 servings; 2.7 carb grams per serving.
Comments: You can further reduce carbs by substituting guar gum for the
corn starch, but it only changes the count by .5 grams per serving, and the
cornstarch is frankly, easier, in this case.

Superfoods containing carotenes (includes parsley, kale and tomato puree) These orange and green fruit and veg contain alpha and beta carotenes thought by many play a key part in preventing cancer, particularly of the lungs. Most also help you lose weight, so should be included in your weight loss program. Foods high in flavonoids (inlcudes dark chocolate, fennel, scarlet runner bean & dill) The nutrients called 'flavonoids' which are present in these fruit and vegetables are thought by nutritionalists to have properties in helping to prevent cancer. Experts who have been studying the nutritional effects of flavonoids suspect that they may also have most other healthy benefits, including anti-candida and antiplatelet properties. Many are also good for weight loss, so make sure you add them to your diet. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systms over the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it claims to allow weight loss whilst still eating many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, like fatty meat and egg and cheese. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a low carbohydrate, high protein, diet system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil. |
