Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Lean beef (preferably eye of round), thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Whole wheat flour
- 2 cups Low-fat milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 4 slices Whole grain bread slices
Instructions
1. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the thinly sliced lean beef to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the beef begins to brown.
3. Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the beef, stirring constantly, allowing the flour to absorb the oil and juices for about 1-2 minutes.
4. Gradually whisk in the low-fat milk, ensuring it incorporates well to avoid lumps. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Season the sauce with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine.
6. Once thickened, remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for garnish and added flavor.
7. While the beef mixture is cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices until golden brown and crispy.
8. Serve the warm creamed chipped beef over the toasted bread slices. Enjoy this heart-healthy twist on a classic comfort dish!
