Description

Learn how-to prepare deliciously tender steak for healthy lunch or dinners by following my guide below. Melt in your mouth steak combined with sautéed brussel sprouts and perfectly baked sweet potato. 

Ingredients

Scale
  1. 1lb Denver Steak
  2. 4 Cups Brussel Sprouts
  3. 2 Medium-Sized Sweet Potatoes
  4. 3 Tablespoons Butter
  5. 1 Teaspoon Olive Oil
  6. Salt + Pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Take out your steak and bring to room temperature for 30 minutes. 
  2. While waiting for the oven to preheat and the steaks to come to room temperature, bring a medium sized pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to your water.
  3. Using a fork poke 4-5 holes in your sweet potatoes to allow steam to escape. Create a “boat” of foil around your sweet potatoes and drizzle a 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil over each and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Wrap the sweet potatoes completely and place directly on the rack in your preheated oven. Continue to bake for 40 minutes or until the sweet potato easily splits with a butter knife. Preheat your grill to medium high.
  5. Season your steak with Montreal Steak Seasoning and any other seasonings your using. Place them on your preheated grill for 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Half way through the 5 minutes, rotate your steak a quarter turn or 45 degrees to create a diamond pattern on your steaks. 
  6. After the first 5 minutes are up, flip your steaks over and repeat until you have reached an internal temperature of 135 degrees for medium rare. Remove your steaks and let them rest for at least 5 minutes. Place 1/2 Tablespoon of butter on each steak and allow it to melt.
  7. While the steaks are resting, take your brussel sprouts and trim the stem and remove any damaged leaves. Cut them into equal sized bites. 
  8. Submerge your brussel sprouts into the boiling water for 3-5 minutes or until they turn a bright green color. Once par boiled, drain the brussel sprouts.
  9. Heat your saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 Tablespoons of butter and allow to heat up until butter is lightly bubbling. Add the brussel sprouts and season with salt and pepper. Continue to saute 7-8 minutes or until they are tender and golden brown in color. Test for doneness. 
  10. Now that the steak has rested, slice against the grain into bite size pieces. Weigh 4 oz of your steak and place in your meal prep container. 
  11. Measure out 1 cup of brussel sprouts and add to each container. 
  12. Split the sweet potatoes in half and using a fork, gentle mash. Top with butter and salt/pepper. Place 1/2 sweet potato in each container either with the skin on, or removed.
  13. Cover and keep in the fridge for up to 7 days. 

Notes

v  Pro Tip: Shake 1 Tablespoon seasoning per 1 pound of meat.

v  Pro Tip: Turn your heat to medium high and first bring your pan up to heat before adding the butter. This way you won’t burn your butter while waiting for the pan to reach temp.
