Steak Me Home Tonight: Pan Fried Garlic Butter Steak

We eat a lot of steak, it is one of our favourite dishes to make. Pretty much all of our favourite veg
options go perfectly and a good steak does not need much for seasoning.

One of the big problems we have in our tiny apartment is that we do not have room for a grill or barbecue, our favourite ways to cook steak. We have to pan fry all of our steaks.

This pan-fried garlic butter steak is incredibly quick and easy to make, we have it at least once a week. Sometimes we add a little ghost pepper salt just to spice things up.

The side dish I have pictured with the steak is prosciutto wrapped asparagus, a super easy side. It is perfect for someone who is trying to get into eating more vegetables. 

Ingredients:
-1 steak of your choice
-1 tbsp garlic butter
-season to taste with salt and pepper



Procedure:
1. Heat garlic butter on medium until it has melted and the pan is throughly hot.
2. Season each side to taste and fry on each side for 3 minutes this should give you a medium-rare steak (times may vary depending on stove and how you like steak cooked).
3. Let the steak rest for five minutes and then enjoy!

Thick Keto Pizza Crust

This is my favourite low-carb pizza crust by far! It is not eggy like others and it is thick enough to carry flavour and support the toppings. 

I usually top my pizza with chicken, bacon and other meats. I have not added toppings into the nutrition considerations.




This crust is FILLING, I consider a quarter of the crust one serving. The nutritional information below is for the entire crust, no toppings. 

UPDATE TIPS TO MAKE THIS BETTER & EASIER: 
-take the bacon grease and add a teaspoon to a tablespoon to the crust mix, this will help everything mix together if the greasy is still hot
-mix the crust in a large measuring cup and then leave it for a few minutes on the preheated oven to melt everything together, this will make the cream cheese less chunky when you whisk it 



Ingredients

-4 Tablespoons Of Herb & Garlic Cream Cheese
-3 Eggs
-1/4 Cup Whipping Cream
-1/4 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
-1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
-1/4 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning
-1 Cup Grated Cheese (I use Tex Mex or Marble)

Prep Work
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-Grease pan and layer one cup of grated cheese on the greased pan. 


Procedure

-Beat cream cheese with eggs in a medium bowl. 
-Add whipping cream, grated parmesan cheese, italian spices and garlic to the first mixture one at a time. 

-Pour mixture over grated cheese lining the pan. 

-Bake for 10-12 minutes and then let cool. 

Your crust is now finished, now just add your favourite sauce and toppings and you will have  one of the best low-carb pizzas around. 


Top It Off

-Spread sauce on crust.
-Add toppings and cheese.
-Bake for 15 minutes. I find this varies by oven, keep an eye on your pizza and make the call when it bubbles.
-Let stand for 10 minutes. This will harden everything up and make it easier to eat, it also melts together further for a more flavourful pizza experience.
