Description

A rich, creamy, and comforting keto beef stroganoff made with tender beef, mushrooms, and a low-carb sauce, perfect for a satisfying meal without breaking your diet.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz (225 g) mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup (240 ml) beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) sour cream
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef slices for 2–3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add butter and sauté the chopped onion until soft.
  3. Add garlic and mushrooms, cooking until mushrooms release moisture and turn golden.
  4. Pour in beef broth, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Lower heat and stir in sour cream and heavy cream until combined.
  6. Add xanthan gum if desired and mix well to thicken the sauce.
  7. Return beef to the skillet and cook for another 2–3 minutes until heated through.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

  • Use tender cuts like sirloin or ribeye for best results.
  • Xanthan gum is optional but helps thicken the sauce.
  • Add Worcestershire sauce or chili flakes for extra flavor.
  • Serve with cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for a keto-friendly meal.
  • Avoid freezing as the sauce may separate.
