Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Big lettuce leaves (such as romaine or iceberg)
- 1 medium Tomato, diced
- 1 small Cucumber, sliced
- 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 large Avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Begin by making the marinade for the beef. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Slice the beef skirt steak into thin strips and add them to the bowl with the marinade. Mix well to ensure all the beef is coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for best results.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, dice the tomato, slice the cucumber and red onion, crumble the feta cheese, and slice the avocado. Set these aside.
After the beef has marinated, heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the marinated beef strips to the pan in a single layer. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the beef is browned and cooked to your liking.
Remove the beef from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes.
Assemble the Keto Beef Yiros: Lay a leaf of lettuce on a plate, then add a few strips of cooked beef down the center of the leaf.
Top with diced tomato, sliced cucumber, red onion, a sprinkle of feta cheese, and a couple of avocado slices.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and optionally a squeeze of lemon juice for extra flavor.
Repeat the assembly process for each serving. Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Beef Yiros!
