LOW Carb: Grilled Ribeye Steak with Cumin Aioli
I finally got my laptop back from Dell, so I'm back to getting some recipes on the board! Sorry for the delay my peeps!
Grilled Steak with Cumin Aioli
Ingredients:
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
1 Ribeye or Sirloin steak, about 2 1/2 lbs.
1 Tbsp. cumin seeds
1 large egg
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup olive oil
4 tsp. lemon juice
Preparation:
Mix the olive oil, salt, garlic and black pepper together in a small bowl. Spread on both sides of the steak. Cover and refrigerate. Dry-roast the cumin seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat until they darken a shade. Remove from the heat. Finely grind half of the cumin seeds in a spice or coffee grinder.
In a blender or food processor, combine the egg, Dijon mustard, salt, garlic and the finely ground cumin seeds. With the motor on, add half of the oils in a slow steady stream. Add the lemon juice and continue adding the rest of the oil until the aioli is emulsified. If the mixture seems too thick, add a spoonful or two of water. Scrape the aioli into a bowl and stir in the whole cumin seeds.
Preheat the barbecue or broiler to high. Grill or broil the steak, 6-9 minutes on each side for medium. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice very thinly across the grain and serve with the cumin aioli on the side.
Serves 4 people with regular sized bellies.... only 2 net carbs per serving though!
