Restaurant Mongolian beef gets much of its sweetness from a generous amount of brown sugar, which this version swaps for a low-carb sweetener while keeping the same glossy, dark sauce built on soy sauce and hoisin. Cauliflower rice underneath soaks up the sauce the same way steamed rice would, without the carbs that usually come with a plate of this dish.

Crushing whole peppercorns coarsely, rather than using pre-ground pepper, is what gives steak au poivre its signature crust - large, cracked pieces press into the meat and hold their bite through cooking rather than dissolving into dust. The classic finishing move is deglazing the same pan with brandy and cream, turning the fond left behind by the sear into a glossy pan sauce in under five minutes.

Cutting the beef into evenly sized cubes and threading them with a little space between each piece is what lets a hot grill sear every side properly - crowding pieces together on the skewer causes them to steam rather than char. A simple olive oil, lemon, and oregano marinade does the rest, letting the beef's own flavor lead rather than masking it.
