Barbecue Sauce can be PACKED with sugar, don't believe me? Go check out your favorite bottle and see for yourself, I'll wait......SEE!! :) So let's clean things up a bit and let chili paste (with just 2 grams of sugar per tablespoon) give your steak a kick! If you manage to have any leftovers, slice remaining steak for a Thai-inspired salad the next day. And if anyone reading this is doing the 21 Day Fix, it is DEFINITELY Fix friendly!!
