Thai Beef Tips
Sweet, savory, with floral notes of lemongrass and ginger, this beef dish cooks quickly and is an easy and delicious steak dinner. I like to serve this with a Green Chayote Salad, which is a low carb version of the Thai classic green papaya salad.
Servings: 2
Calories: 330kcal
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons ginger fresh grated
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or 4 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons monk fruit golden, omit if using coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon lemongrass paste
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pound beef top sirloin cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil more as needed
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients except the beef in a ziplock bag or glass bowl and stir to combine. Add the beef and coat in the sauce. Marinate for a minimum of 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Heat 1 teaspoon avocado oil in a hot pan over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned on all sides cooked to your liking, about 7 minutes for medium rare (125ºF).
Notes
Alternatively, use a whole top sirloin steak and marinade overnight. Then cook via reverse sear.
Preheat the oven to 200ºF. Place steaks on a wire rack set into a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the internal temperature of the steak is 115ºF, about 20-45 minutes for medium-rare. This will vary depending on the thickness of your steak (thicker steaks will take longer) and oven conditions so check its internal temperature.
Heat a cast iron pan over high heat as the steak is coming out of the oven. When hot, add the avocado oil. Add the steak to the hot oil (it should sizzle immediately). Cook until steak is golden brown, about 45 seconds to 1 minute. Flip and cook the other side the same way. Remove the steaks and serve – there is no need to rest a reverse seared steak.
