Total Time:35 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
Meatballs
1 lb ground beef
1/4 cup almond flour
1 large egg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Sauce and Garnish
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 cup beef broth
1 cup sour cream
Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Prepare Meatball Mixture: In a bowl, combine ground beef, almond flour, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and form into evenly sized meatballs.
Brown Meatballs: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
Cook Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they become softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Simmer Sauce: Pour in the beef broth and bring it to a gentle simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet to add flavor.
Add Sour Cream and Meatballs: Stir in the sour cream until the sauce is smooth. Return the meatballs to the skillet and cook together for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the meatballs to heat through.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot for a comforting ketogenic stromganoff meal.
Notes
Use almond flour as a low-carb alternative to breadcrumbs for keto compliance.
Make sure to not overmix the meatball mixture to keep them tender.
If sour cream is not available, full-fat Greek yogurt can be used as a substitute.
Beef broth can be replaced with mushroom or vegetable broth for different flavor profiles.
This dish pairs well with cauliflower rice or steamed low-carb vegetables for a complete meal.
