Zucchini is, without a doubt, one of the best vegetables to have on a low-carb diet. Its super versatile, has a great texture, and - with the right treatment - can be super tasty!

Asian-inspired recipes tend to contain a lot of protein, plenty of fresh vegetables, and (as long as rice is omitted) few carbs; not to mention Asian food is delicious!

Stir-fry is an extremely common form of Asian cuisine and a particular favorite amongst Westerners. Stir-fry is extremely versatile, filling, and flavorful.

While most stir-fry recipes call for the use of rice or lo mien noodles, this recipe will include neither for the sake of staying low-carb. Its quite filling on its own; however, you can serve it on top of fresh zoodles tossed with soy sauce if you wish.

Serving Sizes:

Preparation Time:

Nutritional Information (Per serving): 200 calories, 10g fat, 9g carbs, 16g protein, 40mg cholesterol, 710mg sodium

Ingredient List:

• 3 Tbsp. reduced sodium soy sauce
• 2 Tbsp. rice wine
• 1 Tbsp. light brown sugar
• tsp. cornstarch
• 1 Tbsp. vegetable or canola oil
• 1 Tbsp. ginger, minced
• 1 Tbsp. garlic, crushed and minced
• 1-pound thin steak, cut into strips
• 1 cup fresh snow peas (with ends and strings removed)

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

How to Cook:

1. Add the soy sauce, rice wine, sugar, and cornstarch to a small mixing bowl. Using a fork or a whisk, mix until no lumps remain. Set sauce aside.

2. Add the oil to a large wok over medium heat. Add in the garlic and the ginger and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.

3. Add in the steak and saut for an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until the meat is evenly cooked.

4. Add the snow peas and saut for 3 minutes.

5. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the steak mixture. Stir to combine.

6. Simmer for about 5 to 7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.

7. Serve and enjoy!

Before going carb-free, one of my absolute favorite dishes in the world was shrimp (or chicken, or sausage) cooked in a sauce and served over hot linguine pasta! Once I switched to a low-carb diet, I truly missed linguine dishes - until, that is, I discovered zoodles!

If you havent heard of zoodles, they are, simply put, thin strips of zucchini that are an absolutely fantastic alternative to carb-heavy pasta. They make fresh and delicious entrees without the added sugars - or guilt, for that matter!

Zucchini noodles are extremely flexible - just use them as you would any type of pasta!

This particular recipe is a classic - tender shrimp, fresh noodles, and a delicious sauce! Serve it with a side salad, if desired.

Note: Zoodles are traditionally made with a spiralizer, which easily allows the zucchini to be cut into strips. If you dont have a spiralizer, you can simply cut the zucchini into thin noodle-like strips yourself; just be sure to keep the thickness more or less the same on each noodle to ensure even cooking.
