Alright, here's the truth - I don't enjoy the taste of lettuce. So, there. I love almost all other vegetables, but lettuce? Rabbit food. Honestly, some spinach would be nice, but you would end up with BS, and get snickers before finishing the acronym.
I prefer BAT's (stop snickering) bacon, avocado and tomato. Don't laugh yet - let me put some citrus mayonnaise on the bread for you. Not expecting that, were you?
Mix orange zest, a squirt of lemon and your favorite mayo for a perfect topper.
I've also been in the mood for some beef and broccoli, but the delivery guy (along with the pizza guy) can't seem to understand the calling system outside my apartment, so I decided to come up with my own recipe.
Crispy Orange Beef and Broccoli
- flank steak
- broccoli
- brown rice (cook according to label instructions)
- fresh ginger
- sesame oil
- bottled spicy orange sauce
- oil for frying
- corn starch
- s&p
Cut flank steak against the grain into very thin strips. Add to zip-up bag with enough cornstarch to cover and mix. Set aside. Use the back of a spoon to remove the skin from ginger. Grate about a 1/2 tbs. per serving. Add the remaining ginger (not grated) to the rice while cooking.
Blanch broccoli and set aside. Add oil to pan, enough to cover about half of the flank steak strips and turn to medium heat. Add strips to hot oil and cook about a minute on each side. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Add a little bit of sesame oil to a new pan and add broccoli and s&p to taste. Add enough spicy orange sauce to cover broccoli without drowning the florets. Add crispy beef strips and broccoli to top a bowl of the ginger scented rice (remove the ginger before serving). Add some sesame seeds and enjoy!
