How to Make Low-Carb Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry Meal Prep

Bring together the marinade ingredients in a bowl, and those just consist of olive oil, tapioca flour, coconut aminos (instead of soy sauce) and, of course, some salt and pepper. Let the beef marinate in the bowl for at least 10 minutes (but several hours is ok, too). 

Get your large deep skillet nice and hot and add the ghee, garlic, and ginger. Cook quickly, and then add the beef and marinade right to the pan. Cook for five minutes or so, and then add the broccoli, and keep cooking until that's tender. That's it. So easy.

When it's time to serve, simply garnish it with sliced green onions. Dig in!

How to Store Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

This meal serves four, like many of our recipes, so you can serve it immediately or portion it out and prep it for the week. If desired you can prep and freeze this meal, too. It will keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Substitutions and Alterations

If you're following a low-carb diet, there's not a ton of wiggle room in this recipe. You can use any kind of cut of beef that works for you instead of stew beef or round roast. Swap out the broccoli for cauliflower or use a combination of both. Up the garlic and/or ginger if desired. 

However, if your diet isn't low-carb but you like the looks of this, by all means serve with regular white or brown rice, or cauliflower rice.
