Steak & Zoodles

/

If you’re looking for a quick and easy recipe, this is the one for you! Start to finish takes roughly fifteen minutes (but it looks so fancy people will definitely think you slaved over it).

I have never really enjoyed zucchini because I’m not a fan of the consistency, so I was kinda nervous to try zoodles. Everyone was raving about them though, so I decided to pick up a package at the grocery store.

Y’all…this stuff is life changing.

Seriously, I pretty much stopped eating normal noodles. The flavor is great, and the consistency is almost identical to regular noodles - not to mention they’re way healthier.

Throw in some marinated steak and you’ve got yourself a pretty impressive meal my friend.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1-1 1/2 lb flank steak, cut into strips

  • Zoodles (I bought mine prepackaged at target)

  • Olive oil

  • 1 tbsp garlic, minced

  • 2 tbsp butter (I use earth balance because it’s dairy free)

  • 1 lemon, juiced (1/4 cup)

  • 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley

  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 2 tsp black pepper

  • 1/3 cup soy sauce or coconut aminos

  • 1 tbsp Sriracha or preferred hot sauce

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Combine soy sauce, half of the lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, and sriracha in an airtight container. Add in steak strips and allow to marinade for a minimum of 30 minutes.

  2. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a pan (medium-medium high). Add in the steak strips, setting the marinade juices aside for later. Make sure steak is in one layer, try to remove overlap between strips. Allow to sit for about 1 minute.

  3. Stir in minced garlic, then allow to sit for a couple more minutes until steak is cooked to your preference (I like my steak a little bit more rare, so I did about 3 more minutes). Remove steak from pan and set aside.

  4. In the same pan, add butter, remaining lemon juice, red pepper flakes, chicken broth, and leftover marinade juices. Bring to a simmer and stir for about 2 minutes.

  5. Stir in fresh parsley, then zoodles. Toss for 2-3 minutes, allowing them to cook to the texture that you like. Add steak strips back in and stir for a couple more minutes.

  6. Serve and enjoy!
