Why It’s Good for You – Health Benefits

  • Lean Protein from Steak: High-quality steak filets deliver a complete protein source to keep you full and energized.

  • Antioxidant Boost: Garlic and ginger aren’t just flavorful — they’re anti-inflammatory, immune-supporting powerhouses.

  • Asparagus = Detox Support: Rich in folate, fiber, and antioxidants, asparagus helps flush toxins and supports digestive health.

  • Lower Carb & Gluten-Conscious: If you use a gluten-free black bean sauce, this dish is a great low-carb, gluten-free option — ideal for balanced blood sugar and digestion.

  • Iron & Zinc Rich: Perfect for energy levels and immune function, especially if you’re active or following a strength-training plan.

👩‍🍳 Tips & Variations:

  • Make it Spicier: Add sliced red chili or a drizzle of chili oil to turn up the heat.

  • Veggie Swap: Not into asparagus? Try tenderstem broccoli, green beans, or bell peppers.

  • Serve it With: A side of cauliflower rice, rice noodles, or jasmine rice makes it a complete meal.

  • Vegetarian Twist: Swap steak for tempeh or firm tofu, and use a plant-based black bean sauce for a delicious veggie version.
