Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef (preferably grass-fed)
- 1 medium red onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup fresh mint leaves
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Finely chop the red onion and garlic cloves. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Chop the fresh parsley and mint leaves and add them to the bowl with the onion and garlic.
Add the ground beef to the bowl.
Crack the egg into the bowl and add the olive oil.
Sprinkle in the ground cumin, ground coriander, ground black pepper, and sea salt.
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly using your hands until they are well combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape each portion into an oval patty about 1 inch thick.
Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Brush the grill grates with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the bifteki on the grill and cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and nicely charred on the outside.
Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the bifteki with a fresh salad or grilled vegetables for a complete paleo meal.
