Yummm I am having flatiron steak for dinner tonight. I'm so excited too! I just grill it on top of my stove... but you could broil it, or grill it outside, too. You could make fajitas - grill some pepper strips and onions and throw it all in a tortilla! Or you could just eat it all by itself with some veggies, or a sweet or regular potato.0

Grill it! Fresh meat is good for you in the right proportions!0

Grill it along with some onion and green pepper then slice thin and wrap in a low carb wrap with some reduced fat cheese for a Philly Cheese wrap. Or if you are going low carb, skip the wrap and throw all on a bed of greens for Phylly cheese salad.0

Yum, grilled sirloin - my favorite. I prefer the flavor and chew of sirloin to the 'premium' cuts.0

The only issue in your post is "giant" -- you don't want to eat a GIANT anything, unless it's an apple or a peach!! Good luck & enjoy your carniverous self! :drinker:0

There's an awesome recipe for steak burritos and you can use any kind of steak.
Add a description
Steak Burrito
4 servings
Active Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
1/2 cup prepared fresh salsa
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup instant brown rice
1 15-ounce can black beans, preferably low-sodium, rinsed
12 ounces strip steak, trimmed and thinly sliced crosswise
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
4 8-inch tortillas, preferably whole-wheat (I love the La Tortilla 100 calorie with 8 grams fiber or Carb balance medium tortillas)
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup prepared guacamole
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
Preparation
Combine salsa and water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Stir in rice, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in beans, return to a simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes more.
Meanwhile, sprinkle steak with pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.
To assemble, divide the steak among the tortillas and top with equal amounts of cheese, guacamole, cilantro and the rice mixture. Roll each tortilla up into a burrito.

I heat up a pan (you want to get it really hot) and I preheat my oven to about 350F - I cover the steak(s) with salt and pepper, and a good drizzle of olive oil...rub that in...then I throw the steaks into the super hot pan (this will smoke and sizzle) leave it on each side for about 3-5 minutes - then toss it in the oven to desired done-ness.
my hubby usually prefers BBQ steak - but this makes them so soft and juicy it's unbelievable!0 -
I've got a better idea...................send it to me for my dinner :bigsmile:

In a glass baking dish, mix up:
1 TBS Dijon Mustard
1 TBS BAlsamic Vinegar
1 TBS Crushed Garlic
1 TBS OLive Oil
1 TBS Soya Sauce
1 TBS Worstershire sauce
Poke the steak all over with a fork and coat both sides in mix then marinade in fridge 4 hours, or on countertop 30 mins.
Place on a hot grill (500 Degrees) 3 1/2 mins/ side, flipping 4 times (for 1" Medium Steak.
After removing from grill, tent with foil 5 mins.....then sit back and enjoy a perfect steak with a glass of Red on the side. :-)0 -
Grill it - I would add garlic salt and pepper and you could add worcestershire sauce if you like.0

If you poke the steak with a fork all the juices will run out while cooking it :noway:0 -

That's true if you poke it while it's cooking, but not if you poke it before cooking for a marinade.0 -
Try this, it's part of an Ellie Krieger recipe that I just LOVE the meat.
1 T chili powder
2 cloves garlic minced
1/4 t ground cinnamon
1/4 t salt
a pinch of cayenne pepper
Mix together and rub the mixture on both sides of the steak. Grill or broil steaks for 5-6 minutes (1 inch thick) for med rare, turning once. Remove from heat and let sit for 10-15 minutes, then carve into thin slices.
The recipe can be found on the food network site for Chili Rubbed Steak Taco's. I'd post the link, but it's not working on my pc right now!0 -
yum! I think I am going to stick to old fashion grilling with a spice rub!
haha The steak is GIANT but I have no intentions of eating it on my own I have a family to feed too! I'll probably cut it in half for tonight and cook up the other half for my hubby's lunches.0 -
I usually season it up with salt, black and red pepper and garlic powder. Then I cut up some onions and bell pepper in an aluminum pan covered with aluminum foil and just let bake on 375 degrees for about 2- 2 1/2 hours.0

Ellie Krieger has a recipe for a mushroom and barley soup that has sirloin in it. Granted it is August and you might not want soup or have the time to make it but it is delicious!
Beef and Mushroom Barley Soup
Source: From The Food You Crave by Ellie Kreiger, page 89
4 tsp olive oil
3/4 pound beef stew meat (preferably from the shank), cut into 1/2-inch pieces - I use sirloin
1/4 tsp salt, plus more to taste
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
8 ounces button mushrooms, coarsley chopped
2 medium carrots, diced (about 1/2 cup)
2 stalks celery, diced (about 1/2 cup) (I OMITTED)
2 cloves garlic, minced (about 2 tsp)
6 cups low-sodium beef broth
1 (14.5 ounce) can no-salt added diced tomatoes, with their juices
1/2 cup hulled or pearled barley
1 Tbsp coarsely chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp dried
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
In a large soup pot, heat 2 tsp of the oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the meat with the salt and pepper. Add the meat to the pot and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the meat to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
Add the remaining 2 tsp oil to the pot. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook over medium-high heat, stirrign, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, and garlic and cook for 5 minutes more, stirring occasionally. Add the broth, tomatoes, browned meat, barley, and thyme adn bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the barley is cooked and the meat is tender, about 50 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into soup bowls and garnish each serving with a sprinkling of parsley.0 -
