“Succulent Brazilian Gluten-Free Churrasco Steak with Garlic Butter Sauce and Crispy Caramelized Bananas”

Allergens

None (if using gluten-free soy sauce)

Ingredients

• 4 (6 oz) boneless beef sirloin steaks, cut 1 inch thick
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 ripe bananas, peeled and halved
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Instructions

1. Season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add steaks and cook for 4 minutes per side or to desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
3. In the same skillet, add bananas cut side down and cook until caramelized, about 2 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
4. To make garlic butter sauce, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
