Keto/low carb beef and broccoli is my favorite takeout meal. One thing I was worried about missing while on Keto was take out, especially my favorite- Chinese! Beef and broccoli is one of my favorites, and thankfully it can be made Keto-friendly! This recipe has about 6 net carbs per serving, so you can enjoy 2 servings if you want to!! I will also be sharing my cauliflower rice recipe soon, so keep an eye out!
Here’s a few tips:
*don’t skip the marinating, it’a very important part of the recipe, and really gives it a great flavor (it only takes about an hour, you don’t have to marinate all day!)
*If you don’t have coconut aminos, you can substitute for gluten free soy sauce, but to me it seems to be very strong and salty,
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb flat iron steak, sliced thin (flank or sirloin will work as well)
1/2 lb broccoli , cut into small florets
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 tsp fish sauce
BEEF AND BROCCOLI MARINATE
1/3 cup coconut aminos
1 tsp root ginger , peeled and grated
2 cloves garlic, chopped
DIRECTIONS
Cut the steak into thin slices
Add the beef into a bag, along with the coconut aminos, ginger and garlic. Marinate for an hour in the fridge
When you are ready to cook, drain the beef but keep the marinade for your stir fry sauce
Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for a few minutes and then drain
In a cast iron skillet heat oil on medium-high heat
Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until brown (about 3 minutes or so), and remove from skillet
Stir fry broccoli until slightly tender, and add remaining marinade. Let simmer for approx 3 minutes
Put beef back into pan with the broccoli, and let simmer for a few more minutes
Add the fish sauce and toasted sesame oil
Enjoy!
