These steak sandwiches are simpleyou probably already have most of the ingredients in your
pantrybut put them all together and you have yourself a pretty darn good sandwich. Cook lean
sirloin steaks on the grill, top with juicy tomatoes and crisp lettuce, and serve on a whole wheat
baguette. Dinner is ready in less than 15 minutes and its absolutely delicious!

For the steak: Season the sirloin with the garlic powder, salt,
and black pepper to taste.
Preheat a grill to high (or preheat a grill pan over high heat).
Lightly rub the grates with oil or spray a grill pan with oil and
add the steaks. Grill for about 3 minutes, turn the steaks over,
and grill another 3 minutes for medium (cook longer or less
according to your preference). Transfer the steak to a cutting
board to rest for 5 minutes.
For the sandwiches: Split open each piece of bread, then
spread each with 12 tablespoon mustard and 1 tablespoon
mayonnaise. Divide the lettuce and tomatoes among the
sandwiches.
Thinly slice the steak and divide it among the sandwiches
andserve.

Always let cooked steak rest
at least 5 minutes before
slicing so that you dont lose
all those delicious juices.
Id rather keep them in my
sandwich than let them
collect on the cutting board.

Ive never been to the Bonefish Grill, but fans begged me for a recipe makeover from the popular
seafood chain restaurant. They would say things like, We order Bang Bang Shrimp every time we
go, but its really bad for you, or Holy Cow! We love that shrimp. Please make it lighter, and so on.
Receiving that many e-mails, I took notice. The biggest problems with the original dish are that its
deep-fried and smothered in a fatty mayonnaise sauce. Once I made my skinny fixes, it became one
of the most popular appetizers on my website. Whether you eat them as an appetizer or serve them
over rice to make them a main dish, these shrimp are bangin good!
5 tablespoons light
mayonnaise (I prefer
Hellmanns Light)
3 tablespoons Thai sweet chili
sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons Sriracha
sauce, or to taste
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon canola oil
6 or 7 cilantro leaves
14 cup diagonally sliced
scallions
per serving (23 cup shrimp
+ 1 cup salad)

Because cobbler is a favorite of mine, Ive been playing around with this recipe for years. Traditional
cobbler toppings are usually made with so much butter, but Ive been able to cut down substantially
by using sweet whipped butter. I use ramekins here for automatic portion control.

For the topping: In a bowl, whisk together the flours, raw sugar,
baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Cut in the butter
using a pastry cutter or 2 knives until the butter pieces are the
size of small pebbles. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk
and oil. Add to the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened.
