Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup snow peas
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by slicing the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, for even cooking. Set aside.
Prepare the vegetables: Cut broccoli into bite-sized florets, slice the red bell pepper, and trim the ends of the snow peas.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium-high heat.
Add the beef strips to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil followed by the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 4-5 minutes or until they are tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the skillet. Add the soy sauce and red chili flakes. Stir everything together and allow to cook for another 2-3 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet, stirring until just wilted, about 1 minute.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds, black pepper, and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious low-carb beef stir fry!
