Keto Pork Stir Fry with Cashew

Of course, you can use any nut you prefer in this recipe but cashews give it a distinct Asian flavor that’s very satisfying. Slivered almonds or peanuts would work well with this dish as well.

Ingredients For Pork Stir Fry

A great Asian-inspired keto recipe that’s easy to make and can be prepped ahead of time. 

• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1½ lbs pork shoulder (thinly sliced)
• 1 med medium red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
• 1 stalk green onion (thinly sliced)
• 1 tsp fresh ginger (finely minced)
• 1/3 cup raw cashews
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• Sea salt and black pepper (to taste)
• 1 bunch baby Bok choy (leaves separated and rough chopped)
• 3 tbsp toasted sesame oil
• 2 tbsp tamari or coconut aminos
• 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (optional garnish)

1. Heat the olive oil in a wok or a large frying pan with high sides over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is nicely browned on all sides, around 3-4 minutes.
2. Add bell pepper, green onion, ginger, cashews and garlic powder. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Stir fry the veggies until they become crisp-tender, around 2-3 minutes.
3. Add the bok choy, sesame oil, and tamari. Continue to stir fry until the bok choy wilts and the other ingredients are coated, approximately 1-2 minutes. 
4. Remove from heat and transfer to individual serving plates. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Serve it with cauliflower rice to complete the Asian flare. Speaking of Asian flare, this sweet sticky Sesame Cauliflower recipe is on my to-do list!
