Sirlon Steak and Broccoli Stir Fry 



My husband has been doing the Body Beast workout program and it came with a fantastic cookbook like many of the Beachbody programs come with. This evening we decided to give the stir fry a try. It was a nice change from all the chicken we have been enjoying lately! Simple, fast and clean!

Makes 4 servings 
1 cup each 

Ingredients
1/4 cup low - sodium organic tamari soy sauce 
6 tablespoons of water 
2 tablespoons of tapioca startch 
1 tablespoon of raw honey 
1 pound of sirlon beef cut and trimmed 
1 teaspoon of coconut oil 
4 cups of broccoli florets
2 cloves of garlic 
1 teaspoon of fresh ginger root 

Directions 
1. Cut sirlon into bite size pieces and trim fat
2. In a small bowl combine soy sauce, 4 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon of tapioca starch and honey; mix well; set aside
3. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon tapioca starch and 2 tablespoons water in large bowl; mix well. Add beef: toss to coat
4. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet cover over medium heat and add in sirlon. Cook until meat is no longer pink
5. Add in broccoli, garlic and ginger to pan and cook for 2 - 3 minutes sitrring often. 
6. Add soy sauce mixture to skillet and cook over medium - high heat stirring constantly for 30 seconds or until thickened. 
Remove from heat and enjoy!

Broccoli could be subbed for other veggie options such as zucchini, peppers, snow peas, carrots asparagus or water chestnut.

Brown rice and green beans make a great addition to this meal.

My husband told me this was one of his new favorite recipes. He said it was “guest worthy” Ha ha! If he only knew how much work that dinner was for me to make! It was a crazy night of cooking – small grill fire, pots overflowing on the stove and a toddler running wild thru the house. He was lucky we even had dinner when he got home let alone something so fancy tonight! Enjoy! Hope  your family deems it guest worthy too!

"Perfect and ready to serve"
