Sirloin and Peppery Tomato Reduction

When I saw this recipe for sirloin with a pepper tomato reduction, I instantly thought of my friend Violent Indifference's Grand Marnier Steak recipe he got from another blogger and raved about. Well, I don't drink alcohol, and alcohol isn't clean - but I've been thinking about this steak since then. For VI to rave about it like this - it must be good. So when this recipe came along - I knew it would be something for my CE repertoire.
( I don't have a pic of the steak just yet - but this is the closest thing I could find. Mentally substitute those brussel sprouts for squash - and you get the idea. )


Ingredients

  • 1 tsp red chile powder
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Spices, Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
  • 16 oz Boneless Sirloin Steak
  • 1 medium Zucchini (raw) - cut into 2 inch pieces
  • 1 medium Yellow Squash - cut into 2 inch pieces
  • 1/2 medium Yellow Onion - quartered and separated
  • 1/2 cup Tomatoes Diced
  • 1/2 c Water
  • 2 tsp worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/8 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions

1. In a small bowl combine chile powder, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and 1/4 tsp sea salt. Sprinkle evenly over both sides of steak and press lightly to adhere. Let stand for 10 mins.

2. Heat 1 tsp oil in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat, tilting skillet to lightly coat bottom. Add zucchini, squash and onion and cook for 3-4 mins. or until just tender-crisp, stirring frequently. Sprinkle mixture with remaining 1/4 tsp salt and place in a medium bowl and cover to keep warm.

3. Grill steak either on your gas/charcoal grill to desired doneness, or broil 4-6 minutes per side depending on doneness.

4. Meanwhile, prepare sauce: In a bowl combine diced tomato, water, worcestershire, balsamic vinegar, and red pepper flakes.

5. Place steak on a cutting board to rest. Return skillet to medium-high heat. Add sauce mixture to pan. Bring to a boil and cook for 3-4 mins or until reduced to 1/4 cup liquid, stirring frequently. Remove from heat, stir in 2 tsp olive oil and serve over steak, with squash onion stir fry on the side.

What is Pterygium and Pinguecula ?

[Extracted from the webpage of www.healthscout.com] A pterygium is a fleshy growth that invades the cornea (the clear front window of the eye). It is an abnormal process in which the conjunctiva (a membrane that covers the white of the eye) grows into the cornea. A pinguecula is a yellowish patch or bump on the white of the eye, most often on the side closest to the nose. It is not a tumor but an alteration of normal tissue resulting in a deposit of protein and fat. Unlike a pterygium, a pinguecula does not actually grow onto the cornea. A pinguecula may also be a response to chronic eye irritation or sunlight. Although pterygium and pinguecula sound like mysterious, arcane diseases, they are actually quite common, usually benign eye conditions. These lesions appear as a whitish-yellowish bump or fleshy "growth" on the exposed conjunctiva. If the bump appears only on the white part of the eye, it is called a pinguecula. If it appears to "grow" onto t...

Homemade Almond Milk ( Fast and Easy )

Making homemade almond milk is truly fast and easy. In fact, I made my very first batch of this creamy treat last week for the first time. It involved using only two ingredients: almonds and water, and had only four simple steps: soak, blend, strain, drink. After soaking, the entire process took me only 10-15 minutes. It was fun and tasted amazing! I'm sold on only making my own because store bought almond milk is stored in containers that are lined with plastic and plastic leaches estrogens into the food. And many brands add chemicals. My homemade drink tastes just as good if not better and I store it in glass. I've stopped buying plastic water bottles last year, but I didn't realize that cans and cardboard containers are lined with plastic as well. The convenience of buying containers of almond milk ( along with organic veg soup broth, canned beans, coconut milk) is exposing me to a continuous flow of estrogens which is linked to not only breast cancer but weight gain!...
