Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound grass-fed beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup coconut aminos
- 0.5 cup bone broth
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 4 cups cauliflower rice
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it softens and turns translucent.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet, spreading it out to ensure even cooking. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until browned.
Pour in the coconut aminos and bone broth, mixing well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to slightly thicken.
While the beef is simmering, prepare the cauliflower rice by either steaming or microwaving it until tender.
Distribute the cooked cauliflower rice evenly among four bowls.
Spoon the beef and onion mixture generously over the cauliflower rice.
Garnish each bowl with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if using.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Gyudon!
