Surf and Turf Low Carb  Sandwich 

IMG 0673 Surf and Turf Low Carb Sandwich Recipe

This is a shrimp, steak and avocado low carb sandwich recipe that is SO simple yet so delicious! The flavors go so well together that there is no need for any additional toppings or sauces! Not only is this low carb sandwich ideal for anyone on a low carb and high fat keto diet, but it is also a great grain-free Paleo sandwich recipe as well! This sandwich uses the steak as the “bread” and a mix of shrimp and avocado in the center. I used a sirloin steak because I like the thicker cuts but 2 thin steaks should work just as great! If you’re falling short of your fat intake when you make this you can also add a Tbsp of olive oil to the shrimp and avocado mixture to help meet your macros!

Ingredients:

4 Oz Top Sirloin Steak

4 Oz Shrimp (Peeled and Thawed)

1/4 Hass Avocado

Salt and Pepper to Taste

 

Directions:

1. Season and cook steak to your preference (I usually just season with a little salt and pepper and cook my steak medium rare)

2. Slice the steak thickness in half (this will give you the top and bottom “buns” for your sandwich)
