We have been craving Chinese food since starting our path on keto. So we thew something together. Turned out really good.

Based on the nutrition facts I think we could have added a little more green and red pepper. If you are concerned about the bean sprouts I have found that the La Choy canned bean sprouts have lower carbs than fresh. As much as I would prefer the fresh, I really enjoy bean sprouts. I think my next Asian dish is going to be Egg Foo Young :)  Its a bit of a mess to make, but it turns out far better than I have ever had at a Chinese buffet.
The amount of Chicken listed is an estimate. We had a prepackaged portion and just used the whole thing up. We have about 5-6 servings out of the recipe.

We riced up some cauliflower and put it on top but in my opinion its fine without it.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Med Green Pepper
  • 1 Medium Red Pepper
  • 1 Can of La Choy Bean Sprouts
  • 100 grams Chopped Mushrooms
  • 1.5 lbs Chicken Leg Meat, thinly sliced

  • 1 T Olive Oil
  • 2 T Minced Garlic
  • 1 C Chicken Broth
  • 2 T Flavor Enhancer
  • Salt to Flavor
  • 1/2 Tsp Chinese 5 Spice
  • 1 Tsp Grated Peeled Fresh Ginger
  • 3/4 tsp Xanthan Gum
Directions:





  • Heat a large skillet and place Olive and Sesame oil in it. 
  • Place chicken in skillet and cook to 1/2 done. Add minced garlic and cook until done. 
  • Add remaining ingredients except for the Xanthan Gum. 
  • Cook until Vegetables are desired doneness. 
  • Taste test the flavor and add salt or other seasonings as you wish. 
  • Once you have the flavor to your liking, add Xanthan Gum and cook for another 2-3 min.
