¼ cup(s)

Uncooked lean and trimmed beef tenderloin

¾ pound(s)

Scallions

8 medium

Carrots

1 medium

Cooked medium grain brown rice

2 cup(s)

Nori seaweed

4 sheet(s)

Water

3 tbsp(s)

Ginger root

2 tsp(s)

Fresh lemon juice

1 tbsp(s)

Instructions

1

Coat a grill pan with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Spread 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce over beef slices. Grill beef for 2 to 3 minutes per side; set beef aside on a plate.

2

Grill scallions and carrots in same pan, turning once, for 1 to 2 minutes; remove from heat.

3

Place one nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat (available at Asian specialty stores) and top with 1/2 cup of rice; spread rice out with a spatula into an even layer, leaving 1/4-inch border all the way around the sheet. Place 2 slices of beef, 2 scallions and several slices of carrot on the lower part of rice-covered nori sheet. Starting from the bottom, make a tight roll using the bamboo mat as a guide. Seal the edge of the roll with water and place seam-side down; cover roll with plastic wrap until ready to slice. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make 4 rolls.

4

To make sauce, combine remaining 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce, water, ginger, lemon juice and chives in a medium bowl; mix well.

5

Slice each roll into 6 pieces and serve with 3 tablespoons of sauce.
