This low carb shredded Asian beef is another one of those recipes that tastes better than it looks. My husband took a look at this post as I was writing it and said the same thing. So bare with me here and imagine a shredded beef dish that has a sweet Asian sauce much like Mongolian beef you get at a Chinese restaurant.

This is a recipe that is perfect for the Instant Pot or even a slow cooker. Just brown the meat, pour over the sauce and let it cook away. You can eat this over rice, cauliflower rice or as is. You could even make a really good sandwich if you aren’t watching your carbs.

If you follow my blog you know that my hubby and I really love peppers. He had a stellar year in garden growing jalapeños, serranos, poblanos, Anaheim chiles and banana peppers. So while we don’t have the fresh from the garden peppers laying around, I was in the mood for something different than the bell peppers we normally eat in winter. So I got out my Instant Pot and made this low carb pork & pepper stew. It’s spicy and hearty and perfect for a cold winter day. It makes a huge pot full that you can eat as is with a little cilantro and sour cream if you wish to keep it low carb. Or you can eat it over rice. Either way you are going to love it!
