Ingredients For Keto Beef And Broccoli

– Flank steak: You can use any type of steak for this recipe, but I prefer flank steak because it’s a bit leaner and has less fat.

– Broccoli: I used fresh broccoli for this recipe, but you could also use frozen.

– Olive oil: Used for cooking the beef and vegetables. I like to use extra virgin olive oil.

– Garlic: Adds flavor to the dish. I like to use fresh garlic to make this Chinese broccoli stir fry recipe more authentic.

– Ginger: A must ingredient for any Chinese-inspired dish. I like to use fresh ginger.

– Soy sauce: Used for the stir-fry sauce. I used low sodium soy sauce, but you could also use regular soy sauce or Tamari sauce or coconut amino acids.

– Gelatin: I use unflavored gelatin to thicken the sauce and keep the carbs at 0g. You could also use arrowroot powder.

– Salt and pepper: To taste. Sea salt or Himalayan salt is best and freshly ground pepper.

How to Make Keto Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

Slice the beef: Cut the flank steak against the grain into thin strips.

Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, gelatin, salt and pepper for the sauce and set aside.

Marinate beef: Place the beef strips into a large bowl and pour the sauce over top. Toss to coat the beef in the sauce and then let it sit for at least 15 minutes, or up to a few hours if you have the time.

Stir-fry the beef: Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once hot, add olive oil and swirl to coat. Add the beef strips, garlic and ginger to the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until browned.

Stir fry the broccoli: Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces and add it to the pan. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.

Thicken the sauce: Add leftover marinate to the pan and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

Serve: Serve immediately with cooked cauliflower rice.
