Another Great Healthy Recipe! Thai Beef Salad
What you’ll need:
4 oz of steak per serving (Sirloin works well)
1 bag of salad greens
1 cucumber, scored and chopped
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1 large tomato, seeded and thinly sliced
1 bunch cilantro, stemmed and chopped
1 bunch green onion, chopped
1/2 purple onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves, crushed
several limes, juiced
zest of 1 lime
1/3 cup olive oil
1tsp soy sauce (or fish sauce)
sweet chili paste (trader joe’s or supermarket)
What you do:
In the morning, in a big baggie, marinate the steak in the olive oil and 3 crushed garlic cloves. Oh, what the heck, squeeze a lime in there, grate a tsp of lime zest, add a tsp of sweet chili paste and throw it in too. Let it sit in the fridge all day. When you are ready to start dinner, throw the bag of meat in the freezer for about 10 minutes. This firms up the meat and makes it easier to slice really thin.
While you are waiting on the meat, slice up your onions, chop the cilantro, slice the tomato. If you have one of those really cool but utterly useless cucumber peely things (to make stripes on the cucumber skin) you can use that. Otherwise just scrape the skin with a fork or just leave it alone and chop the cucumber.
Take the meat out of the freezer and with an extremely sharp knife, slice it very thin. Heat a pan with a little oil and stir-fry the beef. Remove the beef from the heat when cooked and let it cool. Place all salad ingredients and meat in a large bowl.
Mix 1/3 cup olive oil, 1/3 cup lime juice, 1T. soy sauce (or fish sauce), 1 crushed garlic clove and 1tsp sweet chili paste for the dressing. Poor over the salad and toss to coat. If you want more heat you can use some red pepper flakes.
