Beef and Artichoke Skillet

Submitted by alijen

"Low carb dinner. Because quite a lot of the carbs in artichokes are in the form of inulin, a very low impact carb, this is even better for your blood sugar than one would think. And very tasty!"

• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 8 slices bacon
• 1 1⁄2 lbs boneless beef roast (sirloin is what I used)
• 1⁄2 medium onion, sliced

• 1 tablespoon Splenda sugar substitute
• 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper, more to taste
• 1⁄2 teaspoon minced garlic, more to taste
• 1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, quartered

directions

1. Lay bacon on microwave rack and microwave on high 8 minutes, or until crispy.
2. Slice beef very thinly while bacon is cooking, then cut across the strips to make smaller (2-3 inches long) peices.
3. Heat oil in large skillet over high heat.
4. Start to stir-fry the beef with the onion.
5. When pink is gone from the beef, add the winegar, Splenda, pepper, garlic, and artichoke hearts- let it all simmer for 5 more minutes.
6. Crumble bacon over each portion before serving.
