Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Lean sirloin steak
- 2 tbsp Low-sodium taco seasoning
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 6 cups Whole-grain tortilla chips
- 1 cup Reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Black beans (no salt added, rinsed and drained)
- 1 cup Diced tomatoes
- 1 medium Fresh avocado (diced)
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 1 4 oz container Plain Greek yogurt (non-fat)
- 1 tsp Fresh lime juice
Instructions
Season the sirloin steak on both sides with the low-sodium taco seasoning.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, cook the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
On a large, oven-safe platter or baking sheet, spread out the whole-grain tortilla chips in an even layer.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the chips, followed by the black beans.
Place the platter in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Carefully remove the platter from the oven and top the nachos with the sliced steak, diced tomatoes, avocado, and chopped cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk the plain Greek yogurt with the lime juice to create a light, tangy drizzle.
Drizzle the yogurt mixture over the nachos and serve immediately.
