This Keto Chicken Stir-Fry with low-carb noodles is the perfect solution for satisfying your noodle cravings without the carbs. Packed with tender chicken, garlic, ginger, and a flavorful sauce, this dish is both keto-friendly and delicious.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb chicken breast, sliced thin
- 2 packs of shirataki or konjac noodles (or other low-carb noodle alternatives)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
For the Sauce:
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos for a soy-free option)
- 1 tbsp teriyaki sauce (use sugar-free, low-carb teriyaki sauce)
- 1 tbsp sugar-free sweet chili sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Noodles
- Rinse and drain shirataki or konjac noodles according to package instructions. Lightly dry them with a paper towel.
- Heat a dry pan over medium heat and cook the noodles for a few minutes to remove excess moisture. Set aside.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced chicken breast, and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 3: Make the Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar-free teriyaki sauce, sugar-free sweet chili sauce, and sesame oil.
- Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken, stirring to coat the meat evenly.
Step 4: Stir-Fry the Noodles
- Add the cooked shirataki noodles to the pan with the chicken and sauce.
- Toss everything together for 3-4 minutes until the noodles are well-coated with the sauce and heated through.
Step 5: Serve
- Serve hot, garnished with extra sesame seeds or green onions for added flavor and texture.
Pro Tips:
- Noodle Swap: If you don’t have shirataki noodles, try zucchini noodles (zoodles) or spaghetti squash for another low-carb option.
- Customize: Add vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, or snap peas for added texture and nutrients.
