Skillet Dinner Featuring Beef Strips, Broccoli and Squash (GF, LC, DF)
From: Pat @ elegantlyglutenfree.com/low-carb-gluten-free-skillet-dinner-featuring-beef-strips-broccoli-squash
Today I’m posting about one of my husband’s favorite dishes… Gluten-free-beef strips with broccoli and squash. Now, generally, he doesn’t like gluten-free. However, this one he really enjoys. And, I suspect that you and your family will, too.
This meal is fast… It’s ideal for the busy homemaker when she gets home from work. And, it’s so easy that I’d bet you could even train that stay-at-home dad or husband to knock it out in 30 minutes or less, too!
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon Oil – I used coconut oil
1 pound Beef Strips – thinly sliced round or sirloin tip
1 medium Onion, sliced top-to-bottom to make crescent-shaped pieces
1 stalk Celery, thinly sliced
3 to 4 cups Broccoli Florets
1 Yellow Summer Squash, sliced or cubed
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Dried Basil or to taste
1/2 to 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano or to taste
1 teaspoon Garlic Salt or to taste
Pepper to taste
Water, broth or stock as needed – about 2 or 3 cups
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat.
Don’t let it get too hot or smoke.
2. Add the beef strips, stirring constantly so they brown quickly on all sides without burning.
3. Reduce heat to medium, add onions and celery.
Stir every minute or two.
4. When the liquid has cooked out of the meat and the pan starts to get dry (about 5-10 minutes after starting), add some liquid – water, broth or stock – about a half cup at a time.
5. Cover skillet and continue cooking.
6. Add broccoli, and more liquid if needed.
Cover skillet and continue cooking.
7. Add squash and seasonings, and more liquid if needed.
Cover skillet and continue cooking.
8. When the meat is tender, and the onions are becoming translucent, and the other veggies are fork-tender, serve.
Enjoy!
Notes:
Serve with hot cooked rice, if desired – for those who don’t eat low carb or want Paleo.
"THMers" can use brown rice if desired.
Garnish as desired… I’ve used halved grape tomatoes for a splash of color and a burst of flavor!
