Description
This creamy, spicy keto shrimp and beef skillet brings bold flavors and rich texture to your weeknight table in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound beef (sirloin or ground beef)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper. Chop the onion and mince the garlic. If using sirloin, cut into bite-size strips; if using ground beef, break it up to cook evenly.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the beef to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes for ground beef or 3-4 minutes per side for sirloin strips. Push the beef to the side or remove briefly, then add the shrimp. Cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Lower the heat and stir in heavy cream, sriracha, and paprika. Mix gently until everything is coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley before serving.
Notes
Serve hot straight from the skillet. Pairs well with cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles.
