Beef Stroganoff
This classic skillet dish is the ideal weeknight dinner. Simple to prepare and sure to please even picky eaters in your family, this easy one-pot stroganoff works beautifully over cauliflower rice or low carb pasta! Additionally, keto friendly variations such as pork tenderloin are available if that is what suits you better!
Beef stroganoff is an indulgent and comforting dish, beloved since it first made its debut for Count Pavel Stroganov by his French chef in the 1930s. Though traditionally enjoyed with egg noodles, you could easily adjust this recipe to work with different noodles or even mashed potatoes!
Although you could use canned cream of mushroom soup for this dish, making the sauce from scratch will create more flavorful and creamy textures in your stroganoff. A roux is used to thicken liquids. Just cook this combination for several minutes before stirring in other ingredients.
Once the roux is ready, add in all the liquids, sour cream and seasonings. Stir to heat through before serving with fresh thyme for extra flavor! This dish keeps well in the refrigerator for 3-4 days and reheating is straightforward – be mindful when doing so as overcooking can ruin its tender texture!
Chicken Stir Fry
This fast and delicious weeknight keto dinner recipe packs loads of veggie power into an irresistibly tasty sauce, making an ideal meal for those on a low-carb diet. Serve over steamed broccoli or cauliflower rice for a complete, satisfying meal in under 20 minutes!
This stir fry is easy to prepare with ingredients you probably already have on hand in your pantry or fridge, and can easily be tailored to meet the tastes of each person by switching up vegetables or proteins and altering seasonings as necessary.
Try swapping out chicken for something else such as shrimp, steak or tofu and adjust accordingly to meet the needs of your family. Furthermore, switching up vegetables such as mushrooms, water chestnuts, bok choy or baby corn will add extra variety.
Add variety to this dish by precooking broccoli and carrots separately before combining with other veggies in a pan, which allows them to retain more vitamins while remaining crisp-tender. This way you ensure they cook through without overcooking.
This dish’s sauce combines simple ingredients: chicken broth, soy sauce and sesame oil. If desired, honey or ground ginger may add extra flavors; make sure that low sodium soy sauce is used so the dish won’t become too salty! Also don’t wash out your skillet after cooking the chicken as these leave behind delicious brown bits that add depth of flavor in your sauce!
