Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons tamari, liquid aminos, or soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Frank's Original Red Hot Sauce or Homemade Red Pepper Sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon mineral salt
- 1 ½ pounds meat, cut into thin strips (steak, beef, elk, venison, chicken breasts, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, divided
- 2 large bell pepper, any color, julienned
- 1 large white or yellow onion, julienned
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum or gluccomannan
Instructions
- Whisk together the Worcestershire sauce, tamari, vinegar, hot pepper sauce, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Pour in a zip bag with the meat; zip shut and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours or overnight.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt 2 teaspoons butter and saute the pepper strips and onion, stirring often, until water has evaporated the peppers and onions are tender.
- Add the garlic and sauté for an additional minute or so. Transfer veggies into a bowl and set aside.
- Add the meat and its marinade to the pan. Cook until meat is the desired doneness (well for chicken).
- Sprinkle the xanthan gum and stir it into the meat; if there isn't any liquid left, add a tablespoon or two of water. Heat for another 2 or so minutes until slightly thickened.
- Return the veggies to the pan and mix everything together.
- Serve on low carb tortillas or alone in a bowl and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
Notes
- This resulting dish (when made with chicken breast) is Neutralific (THM FP). Enjoy only one low carb tortilla or no tortillas for a fajita bowl.
- For a Carbalicious (THM E) twist, add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup cooked brown rice to your fajita.
- brown
- For a Fatastic (THM S) twist, add guacamole, cheese, and sour cream. You can also use a fattier steak like beef.
