I define this as a “lockdown” recipe; however, in reality I make these pouches all the time. This one was done with steak, but you could use chicken, pork, fish… whatever. It is a fun thing to put together for young and old, and the variations are endless. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make lockdown essentials: beggar’s steak pouches

Step 1

PREP/PREPARE

Step 2

Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
Step 3

Place a rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 350f (175c).
Step 4

Chop up your chosen protein, I am using chuck steak.
Step 5

Add it to a bowl with the tamari sauce (liquid aminos), and onions.
Step 6

Let it rest, covered, in the fridge for about an hour, or so.
Step 7

Resting is optional, but it does help all the flavors to blend together.
Step 8

Place on a large piece of parchment paper, and sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
Step 9

Add the cheese and butter.
Step 10

Draw up the sides, and twist into a beggar’s pouch.
Step 11

Place into the preheated oven for 45 – 50 minutes.
Step 12

While it was cooking, I toasted up some bread cubes, and that is what I served it over. But, you could just a easily serve it over rice, or a nice steaming plate of mash potatoes. Mmm mmm mmm.
Step 13

PLATE/PRESENT
Step 14

Open the pouch and serve whatever way makes you happy. Enjoy.
Step 15

Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
