    thinly sliced

    1 large
  • sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • mushrooms

    sliced

    8 oz
  • garlic

    minced

    3 cloves
  • beef broth
    2 c
  • coconut aminos
    1 tbsp
  • arrowroot flour

    or tapioca

    2 tbsp
  • salt to taste and black pepper to taste

    canned, unsweetened

  • fresh lemon juice
    1 tbsp
  • dijon mustard
    1 tsp
  • sea salt

  • minced parsley

    for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large deep skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the ghee over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add the steak in a single layer, season with salt and pepper, and let it cook for 3 minutes to brown. Flip, and cook on the other side until browned, another 2 minutes. Then remove steak from pan with a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate, and set aside.

  3. 3

    Lower the heat to medium and the remaining 3 tablespoons of ghee to the skillet. Once it has melted, add the onions and sauté for about 3 minutes, until soft and fragrant. Add mushrooms and sauté for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the mushrooms are cooked and the onions are soft, then add the garlic and sauté 1 minute, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    In a bowl or large measuring cup, whisk in together the beef broth, coconut aminos and arrowroot until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet and stir well to combine. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, in a separate small bowl whisk together the coconut cream, lemon juice, mustard and a pinch of sea salt. Stir the coconut cream mixture plus the cooked steak into the skillet and stir until combined. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed, and cook just long enough to heat through.

  5. 5

    Garnish with parsley, if desired, and serve over cauliflower rice or your favorite veggie noodles. Enjoy!

About this Recipe

Craving the comforting, rich flavors of classic beef stroganoff without straying from your Whole30, keto, or paleo lifestyle? This single-skillet Paleo Beef Stroganoff delivers a hearty, savory, and incredibly satisfying meal, perfect for a quick and cozy weeknight. This recipe shines by bringing together classic stroganoff richness in a completely compliant package. It's thoughtfully crafted to be Whole30 compliant, low carb, and keto-friendly, proving you don't have to sacrifice taste for your dietary preferences. Using ghee provides a beautiful buttery depth and richness, while coconut cream creates an incredibly smooth, dairy-free sauce that truly shines. The magic happens entirely in one skillet, streamlining cleanup and making it an ideal choice for even the busiest evenings. Prepare for a truly satisfying experience with every forkful. You'll enjoy tender, thinly sliced beef enveloped in a luscious, savory sauce, punctuated by earthy mushrooms and fragrant garlic. The subtle, bright tang from fresh lemon juice and a hint of Dijon mustard beautifully balances the dish's overall richness, preventing it from feeling heavy. This naturally low carb and keto-friendly dish offers a deep, comforting flavor profile that feels indulgent yet aligns perfectly with your health goals, making it a truly cozy and delicious dinner. While this recipe is excellent as written, you can easily tailor it to your pantry or preference. The recipe calls for top sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced; ensuring your chosen cut is similarly tender will yield the best results. For thickening, arrowroot flour is specified, but tapioca flour is a direct and excellent paleo-friendly substitute if you have that on hand. Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon juice or Dijon mustard to achieve your preferred level of tanginess and depth. A sprinkle of fresh minced parsley is a lovely garnish, but other fresh herbs like chives would also work well. This cozy, satisfying Paleo Beef Stroganoff is an ideal centerpiece for any weeknight dinner, offering both comfort and nutritional value. For a complete and delicious meal, serve it generously over a bed of sautéed cauliflower rice or your favorite veggie noodles, such as zucchini or spaghetti squash. A final flourish of fresh minced parsley adds a pop of vibrant color and freshness, elevating the presentation.
