A nourishing, protein-packed meal with anti-inflammatory ingredients to support gut health and overall wellness.
Ingredients (Serves 2-3)
8-10 oz grass-fed outside skirt steak (rich in omega-3s & CLA for heart health)
2 medium sweet potatoes (loaded with fiber, beta-carotene & antioxidants)
1 head butter lettuce (high in vitamins A & K for skin & bone health)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (boosts immunity with vitamin C & lycopene)
½ small red onion, thinly sliced (supports digestion & gut microbiome)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) (anti-inflammatory & heart-healthy)
Spices:
½ tsp garlic powder (immune-boosting)
½ tsp onion powder (rich in prebiotics)
½ tsp smoked paprika (anti-inflammatory & adds depth of flavor)
½ tsp thyme (antioxidant-rich)
1 tsp sea salt
Instructions
Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dice the sweet potatoes into bite-sized cubes or wedges.
Toss with 1 tbsp EVOO, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme, and sea salt.
Spread evenly on a lined baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Prepare the Steak
While the potatoes roast, pat the grass-fed skirt steak dry and season with sea salt on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes for even cooking.
Make the Fresh Salad
In a large bowl, toss together butter lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and thinly sliced onion.
Drizzle with 1 tbsp EVOO and a pinch of sea salt. Set aside.
Grill the Steak
Preheat your grill or cast-iron pan to medium-high heat.
Cook the steak for 6-8 minutes per side until nicely browned and medium-rare to medium (or to your preference).
Let the steak rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness.
