Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • fresh basil leaves
  • 1 small onion (halved and thinly sliced)
  • fresh cilantro leaves
  • 6 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms (stemmed and sliced)
  • Sliced green onion Sliced jalapeño
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • Lime wedges
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
  • 5 cups Beef Bone Broth or Whole30-compliant beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos 
  • 2 teaspoons Red Boat fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 medium zucchini
  • 12 ounces boneless beef sirloin steak (thinly sliced across the grain (see Tip))

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the broth, coconut aminos, fish sauce, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, use a spiralizer (or julienne peeler) to cut the zucchini lengthwise into long, thin strands (or use a regular vegetable peeler to cut the zucchini lengthwise into thin ribbons). Add the zucchini noodles to the simmering soup and cook until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add the sliced steak and simmer until just cooked, 30 to 60 seconds. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve with the toppings of your choice.

Notes

  • Tip: Freeze the steak for 15 minutes for easier slicing.
