Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Grass-fed beef tenderloin
- 1 tablespoon Coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 Green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions
Begin by patting the beef tenderloin dry with paper towels. Season all sides with sea salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and one tablespoon of olive oil. Set this dressing aside.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until shimmering. Carefully place the beef in the skillet and sear for 1 minute on each side until a dark crust forms, approximately 4 sides total.
Remove the beef from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for a few minutes.
Slice the beef thinly against the grain.
Arrange the mixed baby greens on a serving platter, sprinkle the thinly sliced radishes and green onions on top.
Lay the sliced beef over the bed of greens and radishes.
Drizzle the prepared dressing over the beef slices.
Serve immediately, enjoying your Whole30-compliant Beef Tataki.
