Method

1. Cut the lean beef into thin strips and pat them dry with paper towels.
2. Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the cucumber into thin rounds.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over high heat with half the oil and sear the beef for 2-3 minutes until browned.
4. Season the beef with salt and black pepper, then remove from the heat and let it rest for a minute.
5. In a large bowl, combine the rocket, tomatoes, and cucumber.
6. Dress the salad with the remaining oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
7. Top with the warm beef strips and serve with the rice cakes on the side as your carb source.

Tips

• Searing the beef on high heat ensures it stays juicy inside while getting a nice crust.
• Add a splash of balsamic vinegar for an extra layer of classic Italian flavor.
