The Mongolian cuisine is known for its simplicity and the use of staple ingredients to create incredibly flavorful meals.

This keto Mongolian beef recipe makes some simple substitutes to make it low carb without losing any flavor.

With just 4 grams of net carbs per portion, it leaves plenty of room for sides such as steamed vegetables or cauliflower rice which I highly recommend to complete this dish.

You can easily substitute the beef for chicken as well and it tastes just as great.
