Pan Fried Steak with Avocado, Corn and Black Bean Salad


All I can say is Yum!

Dan and I made this Weight Watchers recipe on the weekend and it turned out fabulously. WW recipes are usually hit and miss. I sometimes wonder if anyone had even tried the recipe before they published it.

Luckily with my few tweaks this recipe was a hit and we will definitely be making it again.

Here is my version:

Pan Fried Steak with Avocado, Corn and Black Bean Salad

Ingredients:

for steak:
400-450 grams raw lean steak (approx. 1 large boneless steak)
1 medium clove of garlic
1 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
pinch of salt
pinch of ground pepper

for salad:
1 tsp minced jalapeno pepper
1 cup cooked corn (we used frozen opposed to canned as they are more crunchy)
1/2 medium diced avocado
1 cup rinsed, drained, black beans
4 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
pinch of salt
pinch of ground pepper

Pre-heat pan to medium-high.

Score steak on one side; rub garlic over scored surface. Brush steak with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Let steak marinate for 10 minutes.

Combine salad ingredients in medium bowl, stir and put aside.

Pan fry steak to your liking, we did approx. 5 minutes per side. Once steak is cooked set aside for 10 minutes to allow it to absorb its juices. Thinly slice steak into thin slices, portion into 4 servings. Plate salad into 4 servings (about 1/2 cup per portion). Serve with 1/2 cooked brown rice on the side.

This recipe is only 9 PointsPlus per serving including the rice. Amazing and filling!

Enjoy.

p.s. Like my picture? I finally bought white plates to showcase my food. :)
