INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Beef Strips
1/2 medium Eggplant
0.75 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Mushrooms (sliced)
1 medium Tomato (diced)
1 cup Silverbeet (chopped)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil (optional)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Thinly slice the eggplant into half-moons. Season lightly with salt.
Heat half the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggplant slices and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and the minced garlic, sauté until fragrant.
Add the beef strips to the skillet, searing on high heat until browned on all sides but still tender in the middle, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and let it rest briefly.
Lower the heat to medium, then add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until they release their moisture and begin to brown, around 2-3 minutes.
Next, add the diced tomato and chopped silverbeet, stirring until the silverbeet wilts slightly, about 2 minutes. Return the eggplant and beef strips to the skillet, gently tossing to combine.
Fold in the cooked pasta and heat through for another minute. If desired, stir in fresh basil just before serving.
Plate the dish and enjoy your seared beef strips with eggplant and silverbeet pasta.
