Ingredients
- Filet mignon or chicken breasts
- Cremini or portobello mushrooms
- Fresh garlic
- Heavy whipping cream
- Grass-fed butter
- Asparagus, zucchini, or spinach
- Fresh thyme, rosemary, and parsley
Instructions
- For Garlic Butter Mushrooms: Slice your fresh mushrooms and mince garlic. In a skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms, sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Toss in minced garlic, cook for another 2 minutes, and finish with parsley and seasoning.
- For Herb-Crusted Steak or Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season protein with salt and pepper, rub with olive oil and herbs. Sear in a skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, then transfer to the oven for 8-10 minutes. Rest before slicing.
- For Summer Vegetable Medley: Chop low-carb vegetables. Heat olive oil in a skillet, sauté vegetables for 8-10 minutes until tender. Season and add a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
Notes
Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent steaming. Let protein rest for juiciness.
