This is the best Keto Pork Stir Fry ever. With extra protein from cashews, this stir fry tastes amazing and fits into a Keto diet. With the most amazing flavors, you are going to love this low carb stir fry.
Keto Pork Stir Fry with Cashews
I love this low carb pork stir fry and make it for friends and family, even for people who are not following Keto. We oftentimes serve it over cauliflower fried rice and I serve it with rice for others who do not like it with the cauliflower rice.
What Cut of Pork Is Best for Stir Fry?
I am using pork shoulder for this stir fry. You can also use pork chops that are cut into bite sized pieces. Ground pork can also be used.
How do I Know Pork is Done Cooking?
The best way to tell if pork is done is to use a thermometer. Pork should be cooked to 145 and ground pork should be cooked to 160.
If you do not have a thermometer you want to check to see if the pork is cooked, you want to make sure that juices run clear or very light pink.
How Many Net Carbs are in this Keto Pork Stirfry
This is one of my favorite Keto dinners. Because we love it so much, I like to make a large batch and then eat it for lunch over a few days. There is a total of 6.59g carbs with 1.20g of fiber. That means this recipe has 5.39 g of net carbs.
Variations to Pork Stirfry
You can change this pork stir fry by changing the pork shoulder for pork tenderloin and ground pork.
Add more vegetables that you like, including green beans, just make sure that the vegetables are keto friendly.
Stir Fry Sauce – Some people like to make the pork stir fry recipe with a premade sauce or to make a sauce with a dry sherry.
