Ingredients
- 500 grams pork tenderloin
- 60 milliliters soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon granulated stevia
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 inch ginger
- 4 whole green onions
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 8 whole romaine lettuce leaves
Directions
Step 1
Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, granulated stevia, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.
Step 3
Peel and mince the ginger, then add it to the marinade.
Step 4
Slice the green onions thinly, separating the white and green parts. Add the white parts to the marinade and reserve the green parts for garnish.
Step 5
Add the pork strips to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 6
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 7
Add the marinated pork to the skillet, spreading into a single layer. Allow the pork to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes to achieve a nice sear.
Step 8
Stir the pork and continue to cook until fully cooked through and caramelized, about 5-7 more minutes.
Step 9
Transfer the pork to a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds and the reserved green onion slices.
Step 10
Serve the low carb pork bulgogi with romaine lettuce leaves for wrapping.
