Sirloin Steak
Overview
Why eat sirloin steak?
Trimmed top sirloin is one of the leanest cuts of beef, delivering close to 26 g of protein in a 3-ounce serving for about 156 calories. It is also a dense source of zinc, selenium, B12 and other B vitamins, which makes it a satisfying centerpiece for a meal rather than an indulgence.
Good to know: Even this lean cut carries 82 mg of cholesterol and 2.2 g of saturated fat per 100 g, so keep portions moderate and avoid charring the surface during high-heat broiling.
Serious protein per bite
A 3-ounce broiled serving provides 25.97 g of protein (52% DV), supporting muscle repair, enzyme production and the fullness that carries you between meals.
Zinc and selenium together
Per 100 g it offers 5.71 mg of zinc (52% DV) and 35.8 µg of selenium (65% DV), minerals your immune defenses and antioxidant enzymes rely on.
B vitamins for energy
With 71% DV vitamin B12, 55% DV niacin and 39% DV vitamin B6 per 100 g, it helps your body turn food into usable energy and build red blood cells.
