The Keto Steak Sauce is an oily, creamy and savory sauce that was created with a low-carb lifestyle in mind. In contrast to the classic steak sauces that are high in sugar and starch, this keto option offers a rich and restaurant-like taste at a low carb content. It is a mixture of smooth butter and hefty cream with the acidity of Dijon mustard and the umami flavor of the Worcestershire sauce.
This sauce complements well with grilled ribeye, sirloin or tenderloin, and does not take away the natural flavor of the meat. This sauce is an upscale addition, whether it is a special dinner or a weekday keto dinner that will keep you full of satisfaction and guilt-free. It can be prepared in less than 20 minutes, and it is easy to make, and you can serve it with chicken or roasted vegetables as well, so you can be in your keto goals.
