  Hi, JulietNeil. That depends on how you slice the steak. You can have 1/3 of the recipe, or just under 7 ounces of steak – that is about the size of your hand.

Can I use olive oil and garlic powder rather than the lime zest and ginger. I am allergic to coconut

  Hi, prissysissy20. You can have a very low-carbohydrate vegetable like greens, zucchini, cucumber, celery, or scallions (green onions).

The steak recipe turned out delicious but what kind of steak sauce can I dress the steak with?? (I usually like to eat steak with A1 sauce) Btw. I’m doing keto trim.

  Hi, SheaHill. We recommend a keto-friendly steak sauce like “G Hughes Sugar-Free” (https://www.ghughessugarfree.com/steaksauce) or “Guy Gone Keto” (http://guygoneketo.com/store/). A-1 has too many carbohydrates – you would only be able to use 1 tablespoon with this recipe.

In the ingredients it says nothing about zest.
But in the preparation it says mix the lime juice, coconut oil ,garlic, zest, ginger, salt and pepper . So what is the zest again?

  Hi, Jay840. You get the zest and juice from the lime in the ingredients list.
