An easy keto steak marinade that has all the flavor you’ll need! This recipe is made with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and coco aminos. It’s so easy to make, and sure to be your go-to steak marinade!

When it comes to making the perfect steak, a good marinade can make all the difference in taking the flavor up a notch! While it may be tempting to grab the store-bought marinade, I highly recommend making your own steak marinade from scratch. 

Store-bought steak marinades tend to be loaded with sugars, and most contain soy sauce which isn’t as keto-friendly. In this keto steak marinade recipe, I used coco aminos in place of soy sauce.

What are coco aminos?

Coco aminos is a seasoning sauce made with coconut blossom nectar, water, and salt. It’s a great soy sauce replacement and is low carb making it great for the keto diet.

It also contains a lot less sodium than soy sauce, making it less salty. It tastes very similar to soy sauce nonetheless, with a more tangy flavor.

Should you marinate steak?

The main purpose of a marinade is to enhance the flavor of the steak. Marinating steak can also make it more tender, which is great for tougher cuts of meat.

How long should you marinate steak?

Less tender cuts of steak will require more time to marinate, while more tender cuts only need to be marinaded for a short period of time. Steaks should be marinated for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 8 hours. Marinating steaks for too long can cause them to become mushy.

What ingredients go into keto steak marinade

• Coco Aminos – A delicious low carb soy sauce alternative. Coco aminos are also low in sodium, soy-free, vegan, and loaded with essential amino acids.
• Balsamic Vinegar – The acid in the vinegar helps to tenderize the steak, and give it that delicious balsamic flavor.
• Worchestershire Sauce – A classic steak marinade staple.
• Olive Oil – A healthy fat that is keto friendly.
• Garlic – Minced garlic adds an extra layer of flavor to the marinade.
• Italian Seasoning – Dried herbs that usually contain basil, thyme, oregano, and rosemary.
• Salt and Pepper

How to make keto steak marinade

Simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, and whisk together. You can marinate the steaks in either a glass bowl, large freezer bags, or a glass casserole dish. Ensure that the steaks are completely saturated in the marinade.

For this recipe, I used chicken tenderloin strips. However, you can also use thinly sliced chicken breasts as well. 

How to Make Sheet Pan Balsamic Chicken with Veggies

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Start by mixing together the marinade ingredients in a medium bowl.  Add the chicken to the marinade, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (no more than 5 hours).

While the chicken is marinating, arrange the veggies on a large sheet pan. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, and season them with the seasonings.

Arrange the veggies evenly to each side of the pan to make room for the chicken in the middle. Once the chicken is done marinating, arrange each piece side by side in the middle of the pan. Spoon about a teaspoon of the marinade over each piece of chicken prior to cooking. Discard the remaining marinade.

Bake the chicken and veggies for 20 minutes, or the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. 

Can you cook raw chicken and vegetables together?

Yes, as long as you utilize safe food handling practices. Make sure that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees. Being that both the vegetables and chicken are being cooked at the same time, you will be fine.

How long can I marinate chicken?

Chicken can be marinated up to 2 days. However, it is recommended that you marinate it for no more than about 6 hours. Marinating chicken for too long can cause it to be tough. Typically, chicken will soak up the marinade flavor in about 2 hours. For this recipe, I only marinated the chicken for 30 minutes and still achieved a lot of flavor.

Other keto-friendly vegetables to serve with sheet pan balsamic chicken:

• Asparagus
• Brussel Sprouts
• Bell Peppers
• Zucchini

This keto taco casserole recipe is an easy dinner idea that the entire family will enjoy. It’s loaded with ground beef, topped with cheese, and then baked in the oven. Enjoy the taste of tacos without the carbs!

It’s almost time for Taco Tuesday at our home, and this week I made one of my favorite Mexican dishes that happen to be keto friendly. Taco casserole is great for so many reasons. Not only is it super easy, but it does not sacrifice the taste of real tacos!

As a matter of fact, while I enjoy this casserole as apart of my keto diet – my family loves it too! They still use chips to scoop up the casserole when they want to, so they don’t mind it at all!

I’m a big fan of casseroles because they allow for easy cleanup, and are great for potlucks and family dinners. This keto taco bake is sure to be a regular on your meal plan!

Keto Taco Casserole Ingredients

Ground Beef – Traditional tacos start with well-seasoned ground beef. I recommend using lean ground beef to avoid excess oil.

Taco Seasoning –  This gives it that classic taco flavor.

Green Peppers, Onion, & Garlic – These add an extra layer of flavor, and are sauteed with the ground beef.

Eggs – The egg acts as a binder for the casserole and keeps everything together. Don’t worry, you won’t even be able to taste the egg once the recipe is baked.

Cheese – To melt on top of the casserole.

Toppings – I like to top the casserole with all of my favorite keto friendly toppings once it’s done baking.

How to make keto taco casserole

Start by browning the ground beef with the green peppers, onions, and garlic in a large skillet. Be sure to break up the ground beef with a fork as it cooks.

Once the beef is no longer pink, drain the excess oil out of the beef mixture using a strainer or colander. Add the beef mixture back to the pan, and sprinkle in the taco seasoning. Mix everything together so that the beef is evenly coated.

Next, transfer the beef mixture to a casserole dish and spread it out evenly.

In a small bowl, add the eggs and half of the shredded cheese. Stir the egg mixture until the eggs are lightly beaten, and then pour it evenly over the ground beef mixture.

Mix the casserole a bit to ensure that the cheese gets in between the meat. The egg acts as a binder for the casserole. Don’t worry, you won’t even taste it.

Top the casserole with the remaining cheese, and bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Top the finished dish with your favorite taco toppings, and serve.

Chicken fajita casserole is an easy healthy, but quick meal idea! This is the perfect dish to switch things up on Taco Tuesday. The best part of this recipe is that it is perfect for the keto diet, as no tortillas are needed!

Taco Tuesday is a real event in my house. With that being said, we don’t just limit it to tacos. On Tuesdays, we pretty much each all things Mexican style. This includes tacos, fajitas, enchiladas, and different Mexican side dish recipes.

Mexican food is the one thing that we all can agree on in my house, so it’s actually one of the most consistent things in my life right now (which says a lot about my life, lol)!

This recipe is made using all of the traditional fajita fixings minus the tortillas. 

Traditional fajitas typically all start with meat, more commonly chicken or steak. The meat is then sauteed with peppers and onions, and seasoned with fajita seasoning. You can then add cheese, sour cream, jalapenos, and any other toppings that you choose.

Thankfully, chicken fajitas are keto friendly as long as you don’t use the tortilla.  You can also order them that way at your favorite Mexican restaurant!

Chicken Fajita Casserole Ingredients:

• Chicken Breast – Low carb, and high in protein!
• Bell Peppers – I prefer to use both green and red bell peppers for an extra pop of color. This also adds another layer of flavor as red peppers are sweeter, while green peppers are more bitter in flavor.
• Onion – I know that there are a lot of folks out there who prefer to leave onions out. However, in this recipe, you will be sauteing the onions prior to adding them to the casserole. They won’t be raw, and trust me they are a must for chicken fajitas!
• Diced Tomatoes and Green Chiles – These are canned and make a great addition to any Taco Tuesday meal. They can be used as a topping, or as an extra ingredient in most Mexican recipes. I prefer the Rotel brand.
• Taco Seasoning – This gives us the tex-mex flavor that makes this recipe so delicious. 
• Shredded Cheeses – Feel free to use a Mexican cheese blend here. I used Cheddar and Monterey Jack for this recipe.
• Cream Cheese – High in fat, and low in carbs which makes cream cheese absolutely perfect for keto. Not to mention, it’s so good! I use it in almost all of my casserole recipes.
• Heavy Cream (optional) – This adds an extra rich creaminess to the casserole, however, it is totally optional.

Is taco seasoning keto?

Packaged taco seasoning typically contains flour and/or cornstarch. You can definitely use it in this recipe, as you’ll only need 2 tablespoons spread across 12 servings of casserole so it’s still low carb. To make a simple keto taco seasoning, simply combine the following: 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tbsp cumin, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp onion powder, and 1/4 tsp salt and stir together. 

How do you cut chicken breast for fajitas?

You can slice chicken breast lengthwise into thin strips or dice chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks for fajitas. For this recipe, I diced the chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks.

How to make chicken fajita casserole

1. Start by lightly seasoning the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides, and baking it in the oven until it’s cooked through (about 25 minutes).
2. While the chicken is cooking, saute the bell peppers and onion in a pan with a tablespoon of olive oil. Cook the vegetables until they are tender, then remove from the pan and set aside in a large bowl.
3. Next, remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes. Then, chop the chicken into bite-sized chunks and add it to the same bowl as the peppers and onions.
4. Season the chicken and vegetables with 1 tablespoon of the taco seasoning. Be sure to mix everything in the bowl, so that it is evenly coated with seasoning.
5. Next, add 1/2 of the shredded cheese, all of the cream cheese, and the heavy cream to the same bowl and mix everything together until combined. Then, add the remaining taco seasoning and stir again until combined.
6. Arrange the mixture into a casserole dish, and top evenly with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 – 35 minutes.

Feel free to top the casserole with your favorite low carb toppings like sour cream, cilantro, or jalapenos!

This keto tuna melt is a delicious twist on your favorite classic recipe. Zucchini boats are stuffed with low carb tuna salad, and topped with cheese for an easy meal idea!

After making my Keto Chaffle Tuna Melt recipe, I thought about what other ways I could enjoy a tuna melt without bread. I just so happened to have some zucchini in the fridge because well, I always have extra zucchini lol! 

Zucchini is probably my favorite low carb vegetable, and for good reason too! It’s so versatile and can be used in so many different recipes. 

For these keto tuna melts, I started with my easy tuna salad recipe which is already naturally low carb. Zucchini and tuna are a delicious match made in heaven. Trust me on this!

Is canned Tuna low in Carbs?

Canned tuna in water contains no carbs, and is very high in protein. It also contains virtually no sugar. This makes it an ideal food for the keto diet, and great for weight loss!

Mayonnaise is also another great keto food being that it’s high in fat, and contains almost zero carbs.

Can you freeze zucchini boats?

I do not recommend freezing cooked stuffed zucchini because it will end up mushy once you reheat it. This recipe makes 4 keto tuna melts.

The tuna salad can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 – 5 days. You can always make 1 serving at a time, and just have the tuna salad ready ahead of time.

How to make Keto Zucchini Tuna Melts

Ingredients:

For the Tuna Salad:

This will make enough tuna for 4 zucchini tuna melts.

• 2 cans tuna in water, drained
