Does anyone know the cuts of beef that are almost as lean as chicken breast?
Other than tenderloin /filet mignon, what "new" cuts of beef available in the markets are 1 gm of fat over chicken breasts. I've seen several ads in various cooking magazines.
Answers:
Researchers say that consumers looking for the leanest cuts should opt for those with the word loin or round in the name, like sirloin and eye of round. Trimming excess fat before cooking reduces fat up to 50 percent and added fat can be kept to a minimum by using low-fat cooking methods, such as broiling, grilling and roasting, or moist-heat cooking methods such as braising and stewing. Consumers should also remember that a 3-ounce portion of lean meat is equal in size to a deck of cards.
