Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Lean steak (such as sirloin or tenderloin)
- 1 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp Low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 cups Mixed baby greens or spinach
- 8 pieces Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, diced
- 4 pieces Whole grain tortillas
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for serving)
- 1 tsp Fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Prepare the steak marinade by combining extra-virgin olive oil, low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Trim any visible fat from the lean steak to reduce saturated fat content. Place the steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, then pour the marinade over it. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
While the steak marinates, prepare the vegetables. Halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the cucumber, dice the avocado, and rinse and dry the mixed baby greens or spinach.
Heat a nonstick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, cook the marinated steak for about 3-4 minutes per side (for medium-rare) or until desired doneness is achieved. Remove the steak from the pan and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.
Warm the whole grain tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
Assemble the wraps by layering baby greens, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and a few slices of steak on each tortilla. Optionally, drizzle with Greek yogurt mixed with a splash of lemon juice for added creaminess.
Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll it up to form a wrap. Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy steak wrap!
