Keto Grilled Feast

Ingredients
For the Grilled Meats:
- 2 lbs of your favorite steak cuts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder (optional)
- Olive oil for grilling
For the Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeños:
- 6 large jalapeños, halved and seeded
- 6 slices of bacon
- 4 oz cream cheese
For the Salad:
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup bacon bits
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
Instructions
- Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Season the Steaks: Rub the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using.
- Grill the Steaks: Place the steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting the time according to your preferred doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest.
- Make the Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeños: While the steaks are grilling, prepare the jalapeños. Fill each half with cream cheese, then wrap with a slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick.
- Grill the Jalapeños: Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeños on the grill. Cook until the bacon is crispy and the jalapeños are tender, about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Assemble the Salad: On a plate, layer the chopped lettuce, diced tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and bacon bits. Drizzle with ranch dressing.
- Serve and Enjoy: Plate the grilled steaks and bacon-wrapped jalapeños alongside the salad. Enjoy your meal with a refreshing beverage like Coke Zero.
