Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 8-ounce pieces Grass-fed beef sirloin steak
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh rosemary leaves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups Baby spinach leaves
- 1 medium, sliced Avocado
- 1 cup, halved Cherry tomatoes
Instructions
Take the grass-fed beef sirloin steaks out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, ground black pepper, sea salt, and fresh rosemary leaves to create a marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly over both sides of each steak and let them sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
Preheat a non-stick grill pan over medium-high heat.
Place the steaks on the hot grill pan and cook for about 4 minutes on one side without moving them. Flip the steaks and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side for medium-rare doneness.
Remove the steaks from the pan and allow them to rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the fresh lemon juice over the steaks while they rest.
In a large bowl, toss together the baby spinach leaves, sliced avocado, and halved cherry tomatoes to prepare a simple side salad.
Slice the rested steaks thinly against the grain and serve alongside the prepared salad.
Enjoy your heart-healthy classic breakfast steak with the refreshing salad on the side.
