Keto Lemon Garlic Butter Steak and Broccoli Skillet
Keto Lemon Garlic Butter Steak and Broccoli Skillet
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pound sirloin steak sliced against the grain
- 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari for gluten free
- ½ cup + 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (or any hot chili sauce you like)
- 2 broccoli heads cut into florets
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 3 tablespoons butter or ghee
- Juice of ½ lemon
- ¼ cup low-sodium beef broth
- ¼ cup chopped parsley for garnish
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
- Fresh thyme, for garnish
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the marinade (soy sauce, olive oil, and hot sauce) in a shallow plate or bowl. Add the steak strips into the marinade and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to one hour.
- In the meantime, wash and break down the broccoli heads into florets. Blanch the florets into boiling water for 1 or 2 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
- Bring the steak to room temperature and heat oil and one tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat — reserve the juices of the marinade for later. Sear the steak strips in batches for 1-2 minutes each side until edges are crispy and browned, adding extra oil if needed. Remove the steak strips from the skillet and set aside.
- using the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Melt 2 tablespoons butter, then add lemon juice, minced garlic, beef broth, and remaining marinade juices. Bring to a simmer then stir in the fresh parsley and broccoli florets and toss regularly until the sauce is reduced and the broccoli is cooked to your liking.
- Add the steak strips back to the pan to reheat quickly. Serve immediately with thyme, chili flakes, more parsley, and lemon slices.
