Delicious beef, plantain, and cream cheese dish that is approximately 450 calories per serving:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound lean beef (such as sirloin), cut into thin strips
- 2 ripe plantains, peeled and sliced
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2. Add the beef strips to the skillet and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Season with chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat the beef evenly with the spices.
3. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced plantains. Cook until golden brown and slightly caramelized, about 2-3 minutes per side.
4. While the plantains are cooking, spread the softened cream cheese over one side of each plantain slice.
5. Once the plantains are cooked, return the beef to the skillet and stir together with the cream cheese-coated plantains. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat everything thoroughly.
6. Serve the dish hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired. Enjoy your flavorful and satisfying beef, plantain, and cream cheese dish!
