Keto Pepper Steak
This delicious Keto Pepper Steak is made with juicy slices of steak, tender peppers, onions and mushrooms, simmered in a flavorful Asian sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds flank steak thinly sliced
- 1 green pepper sliced into strips
- 1 red bell pepper sliced into strips
- 6 ounces shiitake mushrooms sliced without the stems
- ⅔ cup beef broth
- ½ yellow onion thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil light
- 2 tablespoons liquid aminos
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil toasted
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced, fresh
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet to medium and add in half of the olive oil, peppers, mushrooms and onion. Sauté until tender, then remove and set aside.
- Slice your flank steak against the grain, in long thin slices. To make this process much easier, I put my steak in the freezer for about 30 minutes prior to slicing it. I cannot stress enough that you want to cut against the grain and very thinly. Otherwise your steak can be tough.
- Add in the remaining olive oil, steak, salt and pepper. Sauté for just a few minutes or until almost cooked through.
- Add in the ginger and sauté while stirring for about a minute, then add in the garlic and continue cooking for another 20 seconds. Make sure not to brown the garlic or it will become bitter.
- Stir in the beef broth, liquid aminos, toasted sesame oil, then slowly whisk in the xanthan gum.
- Add the sautéed veggies back in and simmer until warmed through and the sauce has thickened to your liking.
- Serve over cauliflower rice or all on its own. Store leftovers in an airtight container for a few days or freeze.
