Chasseur sauce, steak and chips

Steak with chasseur sauce and a mound of chips. We cooked our chips in the oven and saved on the calories. The steak was perfectly cooked and the chasseur sauce was simply mushrooms cooked in white wine and beef stock, with some chopped shallots, tarragon and parsley. The flavour was intense and fragrant - and I preferred this to a sauce with cream. We added just a small amount of butter to our sauce (while many recipes out there call for lots of butter). A watercress and parmesan salad was all that was needed to make the dish more colourful.
The fillet steak weighed 160g and is around 260 calories. We would estimate this meal at somewhere around 600 calories - certainly no more than 700 calories.
Now I'm looking forward to the Gordon Ramsey 'Pineapple and chilli soup with fromage frais foam'. A bit of a mean feat, but I'm sure it will taste fantastic.

Why not search our blog for other meals and their calorie count. Just type in the number of calories and the meals will be listed. Or type in an ingredient, and the recipes will come up.
