Healthy Steak & Veggie Hibachi

2/13/2018

17 Comments

 
In a world filled of meal prepping and clean eating, a girl has got to switch it up. After a few weeks of strictly meal prepping the sight of chicken was making me want to vomit, to be quiet honest. I love fish but I refuse to make it ahead of time and heat it up later on. Plus I really don't want to be that girl in the office who makes the entire room smell like fishys. 

To switch it up I've been eating more turkey in all different shapes and forms like turkey burgers, sliced turkey in salads and turkey meatballs. But even that has gotten old pretty quick. Typically around my "time of the month" my iron levels drop a bit lower than usual which is typical for a female. I can always tell when it's coming because I'm way more tired and slug like than usual. Even my typical cup of joe and bottle of kombucha doesn't give me the boost I need. So in that case, I bring in the red meat. I know plenty of people avoid red meat especially when on a diet, but I believe that red meat once a month can be of a great benefit, or dare I say even multiple times! 

While still trying to stay within my calories, and typical meal requirements I try to make dinners that are tasty and still considered eating clean. Tonight I made hibachi steak and vegetables. Super easy, super basic and super delicious.

Ingredients:
Flank steak (oz. depending on how many people the meal is for / your protein requirements)
1 zucchini
1/2 onion
1/2 cup of sliced mushrooms
Pepper
Salt
Garlic powder
Olive oil 
Sesame seeds
Low sodium soy sauce

Directions:
1. Slice up all your vegetables and throw into the skillet with pepper, garlic powder and olive oil.
2. Slice up your steak into bite sizes, then season it with salt, pepper and garlic powder
3. Once vegetables are cooked half way through add in soy sauce (I used 1tbsp)
4. Once vegetables are cooked to your liking, remove from the skillet onto a plate and place steak in the skillet
5. Add 1tsp of soy sauce and sesame seeds, allow steak to cook 1-3 minutes on each side depending on how you prefer it. 
6. Serve and enjoy! 

Side note:
You can make this recipe with any protein like shrimp, chicken or salmon all prepared the same way. You can also add rice to the dish for some carbs as I usually do, I was just out of rice for this meal!

This is not a recipe this has alot of unclear muddled steps and looks like something a bored jobless person posted cause they saw a real cook and blogger do it and thought they get famous and thought they could get rich quick with their half asses meals made for a lonely one with not pallet or concept of how to write or cook i assume this won't be posted cause there is only one other comment and all the criticisms get deleted

Wow, Huh?, thank you so much for your positive feedback! As this was a recipe from 3 years ago, I agree it needs some updating! I am not a self proclaimed chef, or trying to-be famous blogger, just posting what I enjoy doing. But I always enjoy a fans input who takes the time out of their busy day, to tell me what they think! I wish you the best in all of your endeavors!

For someone so critical of the "concept of how to write or cook", you seem to be a fan of run-on sentences. Also, it is not "alot" it is 'a lot'. It is not "half asses" it is 'half-assed'. It is not "not pallet", but rather, 'no pallet'. The next time you decide to jump out there with your critical guns blazing at the hard work of others, please remember that punctuation is your friend, too.

Wow some people are just bullies. It’s amazing how it makes them feel good by making others feel bad. They’re also cowards... Didn’t even have the guts to leave their name. Just a troll with nothing going on in their sad life obviously. I think this recipe looks delicious! As soon as I saw it, I knew l wanted to make it! Thanks for the idea ❤️
