Marinated NY Strip

INGREDIENTS

1LB Grass-fed New York Strip Steak

½ Tablespoon Gluten Free Worcestershire

1 Teaspoon Minced Garlic

¼ Teaspoon Cumin

1 Tablespoon Gluten Free Tamari

2 Tablespoons Avocado Oil

½ Teaspoon Himalayan Salt

ASSEMBLY

1. In a small bowl combine Worcestershire, garlic, cumin, tamari, avocado oil, and salt. 
2. Marinate steaks for at least an hour and up to 24. 
3. Let the steaks sit out for about an hour until you are ready to grill. It’s best to get them to room temperature.
4. When the steaks are at room temperature, preheat the grill to High Heat roughly 550°F.
5. Place the steaks on the grill for 5 minutes, flipping only once, then grill for an additional 4 minutes on the other side for a medium rare steak. Adjust cooking time based on personal preference.
6. Set aside for 10 minutes to let the steaks collect their juices. Do not cover.
7. Slice and serve.

Health Benefits

Grass-fed Beef: Does it really need to be grass-fed? YES. Grass-fed beef contains significantly more omega-3 fatty acids than grain-fed beef. The optimal ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids should be 2:1.   The Western Diet has excessive amounts of omega 6 fatty acids (resulting in a much higher 6 / 3 ratio) which can promote the onset of certain diseases like cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases. Increased levels of Omega 3 fatty acids can show suppressive effects. The goal is to increase your omega 3’s by getting as close to the optimal 2:1 ratio. Your brain will thank you. PLUS, it contains more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a type of fat that’s thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risk.

Avocado Oil: Rich in healthy fat, and it’s a good choice for high temperature cooking. 

Himalayan Salt: One of the cleanest salts you can find. As opposed to conventional table salt that is heavily processed which removes its beneficial minerals. 

Garlic:  Can reduce high blood pressure, and it also contains antioxidants.  Top food for gut health – it contains prebiotic fiber, plus it’s antiviral and antifungal. 

Tamari:  I prefer Tamari compared to conventional soy sauce because I can find it organic and gluten free.
