Instructions
- Heat half of the butter in a frying pan or wok, over medium high heat. Brown the meat. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Fry broccoli and onion in the same frying pan with more butter. Save a dollop for serving.
- Add soy sauce towards the end. Return the meat back to the pan and stir. Season to taste and keep warm while toasting the pumpkin seeds.
- Heat a large, dry skillet over medium heat. Add pumpkin seeds. Stir the seeds constantly to prevent burning. Toast until they get some color and start to pop.
- Serve the stir-fry with a dollop of butter and pumpkin seeds.
Tip!
The meat continues to cook after you take it off the heat, so err on the side of slightly less cooking time. You can always cook it a little more with the veggies at the end if you wish.
Feel free to add a fried egg on top if you want some extra nutrition and even more flavor!

Many people who are dairy free can still use butter. If you can not, please feel free to use bacon grease or coconut oil in place of the butter.
I subbed coconut aminos for the soy sauce, and splashed a bit of Cholula around after I had plated it up... will be making this again!
A single serving of ribeye will be 6 oz as it will have a good bit of fat to go along with the protein.
