Asian Beef Zoodle Soup (Whole30)
Asian Beef Zoodle Soup is a quick, flavorful Vietnamese-inspired noodless pho which subs zucchini for rice noodles.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- basil fresh leaves
- 1 small onion (halved and thinly sliced)
- cilantro fresh leaves
- 6 ounces shiitake mushrooms stemmed and sliced, fresh
- green onion sliced
- jalapeño sliced
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- lime wedges
- 2 teaspoons ginger fresh, minced
- 5 cups beef bone broth or Whole30-compliant beef broth
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce Red Boat brand
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 zucchini medium
- 12 ounces beef sirloin steak thinly sliced across the grain (see Tip, boneless
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the broth, coconut aminos, fish sauce, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, use a spiralizer (or julienne peeler) to cut the zucchini lengthwise into long, thin strands (or use a regular vegetable peeler to cut the zucchini lengthwise into thin ribbons). Add the zucchini noodles to the simmering soup and cook until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add the sliced steak and simmer until just cooked, 30 to 60 seconds. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve with the toppings of your choice.
Notes
- Tip: Freeze the steak for 15 minutes for easier slicing.
