Quick, easy, and full of flavor — this keto beef and cabbage stir fry is perfect for busy weeknights. Made with just a few pantry staples, it’s low in carbs, high in protein, and ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 lb ground beef

  • 1 small head green cabbage (about 6–7 cups, chopped)

  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced

  • 3–4 garlic cloves, minced

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or coconut aminos)

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Optional: red pepper flakes, chopped green onions, sesame seeds, splash of vinegar

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Cook ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain extra fat if needed.

  2. Add sliced onion and garlic. Cook for 3–4 minutes until soft and fragrant.

  3. Add chopped cabbage. Stir often and let it cook down for 7–10 minutes until tender but not mushy.

  4. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and any extras like red pepper flakes. Stir and cook for another 2–3 minutes.

  5. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot, topped with green onions or sesame seeds if using.

Notes

  • Use ground turkey or pork instead of beef if preferred.

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.

  • Avoid freezing — cabbage gets soggy.

  • Add a scrambled egg or low-carb veggies like mushrooms or zucchini to stretch it further.

  • For more sauce, double the soy sauce and sesame oil.
