Low Carb - Low Sugar - Pepper & Asparagus Beef

Pepper & Asparagus Beef

I am trying out new ways to stay low carb, low sugar.  Jorge Cruise mentions that bell peppers and Asparagus are super carb foods so I used those and some very lean beef sirloin to create a tasty and healthy dish.


Pepper & Asparagus Beef
(makes 3 - 4 generous servings)

Ingredients:
1 Bell Pepper (or more)
1 Bunch of Asparagus
2 cloves of garlic
Olive Oil (a few Tbs as needed)
6 - 8 ozs of lean, beef sirloin
Salt & pepper to taste
Sriracha hot sauce (optional)

Preparation:
  • Slice bell peppers
  • Cut asparagus into 1 1/2" pieces
  • Slice beef into thin strips
  • sprinkle with slat and pepper and set aside
Directions:
  • Heat Olive Oil in pan
  • Saute bell peppers and Asparagus in oil until they start to soften
  • Season with salt and pepper
  • Mince or use garlic press and add garlic to the peppers and asparagus
  • Add sliced beef to pan and continue to saute until the meat just turns brown outside.  (I like my beef tender and a bit pink inside, if you like it more done, cook a bit longer).  Do not overcook or beef will get tough.
  • Stir in a dash of Sriracha hot sauce or your favorite if desired.
So Good!
