Keto Corned Beef & Cabbage

Keto Corned Beef & Cabbage is a delicious and satisfying low-carb twist on a classic Irish dish. This recipe is perfect for those following the ketogenic diet, as it is high in healthy fats and protein and low in carbs.

Corned beef is a type of brisket that has been cured in a mixture of salt, sugar, and spices. It is typically served with vegetables, such as cabbage, carrots, and potatoes. However, for those following the keto diet, potatoes and carrots are not allowed due to their high carb content.

This recipe calls for substituting these vegetables with low-carb options such as kale and radishes. Kale is a nutrient-dense leafy green that is high in vitamins A, C, and K and is a good source of antioxidants. Radishes are a crunchy, low-carb root vegetable that add a slight bitterness to the dish, which balances out the rich flavor of the corned beef.

Ingredients to Make Keto Corned Beef & Cabbage 

*   2 lbs corned beef

*   1 head of cabbage, thinly sliced

*   1 bunch of kale, stems removed and leaves chopped

*   1 cup of radishes, thinly sliced

*   2 cloves of garlic, minced

*   1 small onion, thinly sliced

*   2 tbsp butter or ghee

*   1 tsp salt

*   1 tsp black pepper

To prepare the dish, start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Place the corned beef in a large baking dish and add enough water to cover the beef. Bake the beef for 2 hours, or until it is tender.

While the beef is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter or ghee. Once the butter is melted, add the garlic, onion, kale, and radishes to the skillet and sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Once the corned beef is done cooking, remove it from the oven and slice it into thin slices against the grain. Add the cabbage to the skillet with the other vegetables and sauté until the cabbage is tender, about 5 minutes.

Add the sliced corned beef to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Toss everything together until the corned beef and vegetables are well coated. Serve hot and enjoy!
