Thai Beef Salad
serves 4 (or more for wls patients)
10 oz lean boneless beef loin, cut into 1/4" strips (I froze it for about 15 minutes to ease cutting)
1/2 cup finely diced onion
3 tbs reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tbs minced, deveined seeded jalepeno pepper (wear gloves or don't touch your face!!)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp minced fresh ginger root (I grated mine on a microplane grater)
1 cup bean sprouts
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
2 tsp sesame oil
8 cups baby spinach leaves (I omitted this since I am not cleared to eat uncooked greens yet)
Spray large nonstick skillet with Pam; heat.
Add beef, cook over med-hi heat stirring constantly for about 30 secs, until no longer pink.
Add onion, soy sauce, jalepeno, garlic & ginger; cook stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until onion is softened.
Remove from heat add cilantro, bean sprouts & oil - toss to combine.
Divide spinach evenly into 4 bowls, top each portion of spinach with 1/4 of the beef mixture.
