These are some of our favorite recipes, mostly from Cooking Light, but we tend to edit portions and ingredients
that suit our taste buds (e.g. when a recipe calls for 1 minced garlic clove, we use about 4 :) ).
Other recipes are passed down from family and friends.

Flank Steak with Spicy Lemon Sauce

This lemon sauce would be really good with fish or chicken too! We had green beans and Microwave Smashed Potatoes (the roasted garlic version) too ~ yum!


Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces steak and about 3 tablespoons sour cream mixture)
Total: 20 Minutes
Ingredients:
1 (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Cooking spray
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon canola mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Preparation:
1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of steak with salt and pepper. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add steak to pan; cook 5 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Place steak on a cutting board; let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak diagonally across grain into thin slices.
2. While steak cooks, combine sour cream and next 5 ingredients (through juice) in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Stir in chives and parsley. Serve sour cream mixture with steak.
