• 1 cup shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 tbsp minced ginger

🔎 Ingredient Notes

• Protein: Chicken cooks quickly and absorbs flavor beautifully, but shrimp and beef also work perfectly.
• Veggies: Choose any low-carb vegetables—snap peas, mushrooms, bok choy, and spinach are great options.
• Cauliflower Rice: Fresh or frozen both work; the key is sautéing it long enough to remove moisture.
• Sauce: Coconut aminos is sweeter and lower in sodium compared to soy sauce. Perfect for keto cooking.
• Sweetener: Just a touch mimics classic stir fry flavor without sugar.

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients

Slice your protein, chop your vegetables, and measure out your sauce ingredients. Stir fries cook fast, so having everything ready makes the process smooth and fun.

Step 2: Mix the Keto Stir Fry Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce (or coconut aminos), rice vinegar, sesame oil, sweetener, chili flakes, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3: Cook the Protein

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil and cook your chicken, beef, tofu, or shrimp until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4: Sauté the Vegetables

Add your low-carb vegetables to the skillet. Stir fry for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp — they should still have a nice crunch and bright color.

Step 5: Combine Everything

Add the cooked protein back to the skillet. Pour the keto stir fry sauce over the top and toss everything together. Let it cook for another 2 minutes so the sauce thickens slightly and coats everything evenly.

The aroma will be irresistible — savory, fragrant, with a hint of garlic and sesame!

Step 6: Plate and Serve

Add a generous scoop of cauliflower rice to your bowl, spoon the stir fry mixture on top, and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

Dinner is served! 🥢🔥
