Equipment
- food processor or high-powered blender (can finely chop ingredients as an alternative)
Ingredients
Marinade
- 3 cloves organic garlic
- 1 inch organic ginger peeled
- ¼ cup organic cilantro
- 2 tablespoons organic chives or green onions (plus more for garnishing)
- ¼ cup organic coconut aminos
- ¼ cup avocado oil
- ½ teaspoon Redmonds kosher salt
Beef & Broccoli
- 1 pound beef, thinly sliced (grass fed, grass finished flank steak from local butcher works great here)
- 3 cups organic broccoli (about 1 med/large head of broccoli)
Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes & Squash
- 2 medium organic sweet potatoes peeled, diced
- 1 organic yellow squash sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 °F
- In a food processor or high powered blender, combine coconut aminos with oil, garlic, ginger, chives, cilantro and salt.
- Slice your cut of beef into ½ inch x ½ inch chunks and cover with half of the marinade.
- Peel and dice sweet potatoes into ½ inch x ½ inch pieces. Coat with olive oil, sprinkle with Redmonds kosher salt, and put it in your air fryer at 375 °F (do not turn on the air fryer yet). Use a liner for easy cleanup.
- Chop your head of broccoli into small florets (use the stems too) and measure out 3 cups.
- Slice squash into ¾ inch pieces, set aside.
- Using a large and well-seasoned cast iron pan, spread out the broccoli evenly. Drizzle with remaining marinade and mix together to fully coat the broccoli.
- Add in beef. Ensure everything is evenly spaced and not crowded to be sure you aren’t steaming it.
- Cook for 10-12 minutes on the middle rack of your oven. Broil and cook an additional 2 minutes for extra browning.
- Cook sweet potatoes in air fryer for 15 minutes. Add the squash halfway through. Everything should be hot and ready at the same time!
