Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 50 ml soy sauce
- 100 ml beef stock
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 3 tablespoons low-carb black bean sauce
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 3 scallions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips.
In a mixing bowl, combine the beef with soy sauce, grated ginger, and black pepper. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated beef strips, cooking them until lightly browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil.
Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the green and red bell peppers, cooking until slightly tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Return the beef to the skillet and pour in the beef stock and low-carb black bean sauce.
Sprinkle xanthan gum over the mixture cautiously to thicken the sauce, stirring continuously to avoid clumping.
Add the red chili flakes and adjust salt to taste. Let simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Stir in sliced scallions and garnish with sesame seeds.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Beef in Black Bean Sauce.
