Here’s a wonderfully delicious, lean brisket recipe to make for the holidays. Although a very traditional main course dish to serve for Passover, you could also make it for Easter, instead of the usual ham. The key to making it skinny is to ask your butcher for a lean cut and trim the fat before cooking. All the other ingredients come together while cooking to create a fabulous rich tasting sauce. The dried fruits adds a festive touch. The skinny for 1 serving is 354 calories, 8.5 grams of fat and 8 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS.

  1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees.

  3. Add onions to a large roasting pan. Place the meat on top. Pour in 1 can of beer. Cover and bake for 20 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, stir together onion soup mix, tomato paste, brown sugar and hot water to make a paste.
  5. Remove the meat from the oven and spoon mixture over meat. Surround the meat with carrots and remaining can of beer.
  6. Reduce heat to 325 degrees, cover pan and cook until tender about 1¼ hours.
  7. Add in prunes and apricots. Bake for 30 more minutes.
  8. This dish is best made a day or 2 in advance. Cool slightly and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
  9. Earlier in the day you are going to serve it, skim off any fat that has formed on the top of the brisket. To carve-thinly slice the meat against the grain. To do this, secure meat with tongs or a fork and carve with a sharp knife. Slice downward on an angle with long strokes. Add sliced meat back to pan. To reheat-preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place roasting pan, covered, in oven and heat for about 45 minutes until completely heated.
