Beef Strips with Zucchini Pasta

Beef strips with zucchini pasta

Being South African, we love our red meat and steak strips is such a nice meal and even works well as a snack at a South African “braai”. This meal is ideal for a nice sit down dinner, and is very appealing to the eye.

Beef Strips

500 g steak
20 ml olive oil
hand full of fresh dill
1 clove of garlic chopped
1/2 cup of sliced cherries tomatoes
hand full of snow peas
4 tbsp cream cheese
rocket leaves

Zucchini Pasta

250 g spaghetti
1 cup grated zucchini
5 ml chili flakes
5 ml lemon juice

Method

Mix the olive oil, dill and chopped garlic together and marinate the steak strips in the mixture for about 1 hour.
While the meat is marinating, cook the spaghetti, drain and transfer to a heated pan with a little bit of olive oil.
Add the grated zucchini and chili flakes to the spaghetti and fry for 5 – 7 minutes, then set it aside to keep warm.
In the same pan, fry the tomatoes and snow peas for 2 – 3 minutes and remove from the heat.
Fry the steak strips until medium rare. Once the steak is done the meal can be served.

To serve, place the steak strips on top of some rocket leaves. Add the pasta to the plate and put the tomatoes, snow peas and cream cheese on top.
