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!

 

See ya!

Cumin Aioli!

T, once again I'm salivating!
I'm thinking about a Southwestern Chicken Salad with this as the dressing.  Move over Ranch!!Chicken, black beans, a little corn, tomato, Jalapeno, onions and a little cheese.

Very Creative...what else do you have in that creative mind of yours!

Oh T how I wish I could stomach steak. It's the ONLY protein thus far that I simply can not tolerate and that really stinks because I was such a big steak fan prior to WLS and I drool when I'm cooking it for the baby daddy! I suppose you could use the aioli with just about any protein - I'll have to give it a whirl sometime!
