Chilli, Lime & Herbed Beef Strips

Chilli, Lime and Herbed Beef Strips

Serves 2 - 1 female & 1 male


Ingredients:

Lemongrass
2 red chillies (finely diced)
1 - 2 crushed garlic cloves
corriander
basil
ginger (optional)
1/4 -1/2 Cabbage
1/8 cup (extra virgin) olive oil
1/8 cup of lime juice
1 x 120g beef/veal/chicken strips (per female)
1 x 220g beef/veal/chicken strips (per male)
(340g of beef or veal in total)


Method:

Combine the garlic, basil, coriander, lemongrass, chili and ginger and mix into a paste until combined.
Add the olive oil and lime juice.
Add uncooked beef strips and stir to coat.
Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or 2 hrs if time permits).

Slice Cabbage into strips and boil until cooked.
Preheat a frying pan on high heat.
Add the marinated beef/veal mix to the pan.
Cook until the meat is cooked through.
Serve the Beef/Veal strips on top of Cabbage.


NOTES:

The cabbage makes a no-carb option instead of rice or pasta.


You could use whatever meat you like really: Chicken, Beef, Veal, Prawns (Maybe ever Lamb or Pork - not sure, I don't eat either, but you might like it)
