Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef sirloin or flank steak
• 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
• 0.25 cup Tamari sauce (gluten-free soy sauce, low-sodium)
• 2 tablespoons Monk fruit sweetener (or erythritol)
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon Grated fresh ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon Xanthan gum (thickening agent)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
• 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef into thin strips, about 2 inches long and roughly 1/4-inch thick, and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari sauce, monk fruit sweetener, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and xanthan gum until fully combined. This will be the keto-friendly teriyaki sauce.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add avocado oil and let it heat for about 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the beef strips to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium and pour the prepared teriyaki sauce into the skillet. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to let the sauce thicken.

Step 6

Return the cooked beef to the skillet, tossing it in the sauce until evenly coated. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the beef to absorb the flavors.

Step 7

Transfer the keto teriyaki beef to a serving dish. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

Step 8

Serve immediately. Optionally, pair with steamed broccoli or cauliflower rice for a complete keto-friendly meal.
