Bison Steak and Broccoli Salad (Ww 5 Pointsplus) image

This is based on a recipe from John La Puma, M.D.'s cookbook, ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine. This is 5 PointsPlus (Weight Watchers) per serving. You may substitute a well-trimmed, grass-fed boneless beef top sirloin steak may replace the bison. Tip: Bison may be found at Whole Foods or Trader Joe's grocery stores, on the Web at WildIdeaBuffalo.com and RockyMountainBuffalo.com, or special-ordered from better supermarkets. Interesting info from a sidebar in the cookbook and which I also heard on a Dr. Oz episode: "Researchers at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine found that one serving of BroccoSprouts provides as much cancer-fighting sulforaphane as one and a quarter pounds of adult broccoli. So if you want to fight free radicals, try adding BroccoSprouts. One ounce contains 4 % of the recommended daily value of dietary fiber, 15 % of the recommended amount of vitamin C, and 2 % of the recommended intake of calcium."

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup bottled teriyaki sauce, such as Soy Vay brand
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, peeled, finely grated
1 lb organic boneless bison sirloin steak, thawed if frozen and well-trimmed
2 cups broccoli florets
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or 1 tablespoon sherry wine vinegar
6 cups packed mesclun (organic preferred) or 6 cups packed mixed baby lettuces and spring greens (organic preferred)
1 cup broccoli sprouts

Steps:

  • In large bowl combine the teriyaki sauce, sesame oil, and ginger. Coat both sides of the steak with 2 tablespoons of the mixture; let stand 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place the broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover with waxed paper; cook on high power for 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add to bowl containing teriyaki mixture and toss to coat; set aside.
  • Grill the steak over medium-hot coals or over medium-high heat on a gas grill or broil in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare depending on the thickness of steak (overcooking the steak will result in tough meat). Transfer cooked steak to a carving board; allow it to rest 5 minutes.
  • Add vinegar to the broccoli mixture and toss. Toss in the salad greens and transfer to four serving plates.
  • Carve the steak crosswise into thin slices and arrange over the salads. Top with the broccoli sprouts.
