Here is my recipe for making Low Carb Stir Fry with a home-made Teriyaki sauce. I am surprised at all easy this recipe is to make, and low carb stir fries remain one of dietary staples. Is it any wonder how I can more vegetables now than ever before?

Ingredients Low Carb Teriyaki Stir Fry
20 oz Pork Shoulder, marinated & thinly sliced
2 TBS Coconut Oil
1 small Onion
3 stalks Celery
1 Green Pepper
2 Red Pepper
2 cloves Garlic

Teriyaki Sauce
3 TBS Soy Sauce
2 TBS Splenda
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp Xanthan Gum

I like the sticky-ness of the sauce. I don’t miss the commercial sauces or corn starch at all. Xanthan gum isn’t cheapest purchase, but you use so little. I am sometimes surprised at how good homecooking can be, and how it can ruin you for going out to eat.

Oops I accidentally deleted Kattmat’s question: “Looks delish but isnt it a little too much veggies?”

The answer to that question is celery and peppers are 2 cups per day vegetables, and onions and Broccoli are 1 cup vegetables. Taking into account the one-sixth serving size, I believe you would be about 1 cup of peppers and probably half cup of both onions and broccoli.

It’s in most health shops and speciality cook stores. If you need an online place to buy it, check Amazon or Netrition or Ebay.

I have never used aminos. In fact, never heard of it until you mentioned it, and I had to search what it was. I don’t have any problem with hypertension or excess sodium intake, so the sodium in soy sauce is not of much concern. If it works better for you, go ahead and use it.

Flavor-wise the Xanthan gum doesn’t add anything to the mix. It does however give that stickier taste or texture that most people or commercial restaurants in the past would have used corn starch to achieve.

No problem. It’s always a credit when others like the recipes.

I was surprised how easy making a teriyaki sauce was. I had never investigated in the past, but this was cake. I admit it’s not the most sophisicated sauce (with ground spices and garlic), but it tastes good.

Good job. I do think the Xanthan Gum is unnecessary. I “sweeten” my version with agave nectar as I am trying to wean myself off the Splenda. I think carefully placing each piece of pork in the pan at the beginning was redundant. But to each his own. ;-) The recipe can be changed up with other combinations of vegetables too…
