Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork tenderloin
- 4 pieces Keto baguette
- 60 ml Coconut aminos
- 30 ml Fish sauce
- 30 ml Lime juice
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 1 medium Carrot, shredded
- 4 small Radish, thinly sliced
- 0.5 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch Fresh cilantro
- 1 large Jalapeño, optional, sliced
- 120 grams Mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1
Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine coconut aminos, fish sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, erythritol, and avocado oil. Add the pork slices and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Step 3
While the pork is marinating, prepare the vegetables: shred the carrot, slice the radish, and slice the cucumber. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated pork strips, discarding the marinade. Cook the pork for about 5-7 minutes, until cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.
Step 5
Cut the keto baguettes in half lengthwise. Spread mayonnaise on one half of each baguette.
Step 6
Add the cooked pork strips onto the mayonnaise side of the baguette, then top with shredded carrot, sliced radish, sliced cucumber, fresh cilantro, and jalapeño slices if using.
Step 7
Close the baguette, slice in half, and serve immediately.
