Why You’ll Love This 15-Minute KETO Asian Beef Bowl

This bowl stands out for its irresistible umami richness, thanks to a quick homemade “soy-free soy sauce.” Fresh garlic, ginger, and scallions infuse every bite with classic Asian flavors—without added sugar or grains. Served over cauliflower rice for satisfying crunch, it’s hearty, healthy, and adaptable for any meal plan.

The Secret to a Perfect KETO Asian Beef Sauce

The flavorful sauce starts with coconut aminos instead of soy sauce (for Whole30/paleo-friendly) and skips refined sugars. Smoked sesame oil, fresh ginger, garlic, and a hint of chili flakes add real-deal flavor, while a splash of lime juice lifts the dish with a citrusy pop. The quick simmer thickens the sauce without any added starch.

Quick Assembly and Ingredient Swaps
