ketogenic steak dinners

On a keto diet, meat is king. And the king of those meats is steak.

Besides having no carbs, steak is an excellent source of fat and protein. So, it’s sure to keep you in ketosis and help you maintain strong muscles.

It’s also a good source of B vitamins. So, it’s good for your brain.

But besides being nutritious, steak is just plain delicious. Who doesn’t love a chunky piece of steak?

Today, I’m sharing 20 keto steak recipes. They’re not only delicious but good for you too. So, dig right in!

Steak is great just the way it is. But, it’s amazing how seasoning can totally transform your steak from ho-hum to AMAZING!

And this homemade ranch seasoning mix does just that. It’s made of 7 different spices that are sure to make your steak finger-lickin’ good.

Aside from your homemade ranch seasoning mix, you’ll be using smoked paprika. Smoked paprika gives your steak that nice smoky taste without having to barbecue it.

You’ll want to measure the spices just right. To do that, all you need is a good set of measuring spoons which you can find here.

Making this steak is super easy too. Just pat your steak dry and add your seasonings.

Then sear your steak in butter. Yum!

Nothing kills a steak more than it being too dry. You know, those steaks that taste like cardboard.

This steak tastes like anything but cardboard. It is juicy and packed with flavor.

That’s because you marinade it in Greek yogurt and spices. The acidity in the yogurt adds moisture to the meat.

Besides how juicy and tasty this steak is, you’ll love the grill marks on the steak. It’s just like dining at your favorite steak house.

Now, there’s no need to light up your barbecue. All you need to do is place your steak on a cast iron grill pan. You can also use it to make bacon and other meats too.

Serve with roasted asparagus. You can get a good quality iron grill pan here.

Beefsteak is good. But sometimes, you need a change.

This salmon steak is a pretty delicious change. Besides being delicious, salmon is an excellent source of brain-boosting omega-3s.

Succulent, juicy salmon steak and fresh asparagus is baked in a yummy garlic butter sauce. Eating healthy can’t get much better than this.

To make the garlic butter sauce, all you have to do is melt some butter and olive oil in a microwave. Then add garlic, parmesan cheese, onion powder, fresh parsley, and lemon juice…it’s that easy.

What I love most about this meal is that it’s a one-sheet pan dish. So, you spend less time cleaning up pots and pans, and more time relaxing with loved ones.

Hamburgers and hot dogs are great for the hot days of summer. But sometimes, you want to leave those for the kiddos, and have something a bit more “adult-like.”

This grilled steak with salsa definitely fits the bill. The steak is extra juicy and nicely grilled.

While the pineapple adds some sweetness and tang, and the jalapenos add some heat-something, the adults will really appreciate.

Not sure when your meat is done? Just use a handy meat thermometer, which you can find here.

Then check the internal temperature based on the degree of doneness. For instance, if you like your steak rare, your steak is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 125 degrees Fahrenheit.

Serve with a side Garden salad. Check out more keto salads you can serve this with.

But with game day, come thoughts of what to serve. After all, you can’t have a game day without some munchies, right?

These steak bites are the perfect game day munchies. They’re beautifully seared on the outside and tender on the outside… Just the way steak bites should be.

And they’re pretty tasty too. That’s because you’re cooking them with some garlic butter.

These bites go well with some air fryer zucchini fries.

It can be hard to figure out what to serve your honey for date night. Particularly if you’re on a keto diet and he/she is not.

But the last thing you want to do is make two different meals. That takes the whole fun out of date night.

This Caprese Grilled Filet Mignon solves that problem. What can be more romantic or elegant than an Italian inspired Filet Mignon?

This nicely grilled filet mignon is topped with juicy Roma tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and a bit of reduced balsamic vinegar; it’s a party in your mouth.

After this tasty meal, your honey will be asking: “What’s for dessert?” This is a lovely keto dinner meal, so definitely give it a try.

It’s time for some steak and shrimp served Japanese style. Hibachi is just a method of cooking food on a high-heat metal cooking plate, just like you see at Japanese restaurants.

This Hibachi style platter is pretty authentic. The shrimp and steak are nice and succulent.

What makes it authentic is the cooking oil. For the cooking oil, you’ll be using a mixture of sesame seed oil, olive oil, rice cooking wine, and soy sauce.

So you get that nice umami taste that you expect from Japanese cuisine.

And to make it a complete meal, just break out some low carb veggies. A great combination would be mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, and broccoli.

Toss them in your cooking oil and cook on an electric griddle. I like this one here because it is ceramic so it is non-stick but doesn’t have toxic coatings.

Per Serving:

  • Calories: 560
  • Fats: 32g
  • Protein: 59g
  • Net Carbs: 1g

8. Cast Iron Skillet Steak With Garlic Butter Asparagus

We could all use more veggies in our diet-myself included. And what better way to cook your veggies than in garlic butter?

On the menu for dinner is lightly seasoned steak and veggies. The steak has a nice sear on the outside and is tender on the inside.

While the asparagus is sauteed in a delicious garlic butter sauce. Besides being yummy, asparagus is good for you too.

It’s packed with fiber, as well as an immune system boosting vitamins A and C.

What’s even better about this meal is that you just use one pan for cooking. So, clean ups a breeze.

And if you love your veggies, feel free to add some red peppers as well for extra vitamin A.

9. Steak Pizzaiola Recipe

I’m a big fan of Italian food like I’m sure many of you are. But Italian food tends to be carb-heavy because of all the pasta.

Pizzaola, if you haven’t yet tried it, isn’t pizza like the name seems to imply. It’s just meat served pizza style.

So, it has all the sauciness of pizza without all the carbs.

And this one doesn’t disappoint. This steak is melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

It’s topped with a sweet and tangy tomato sauce, and two different kinds of olives to boot. You’ll be in Mediterranean heaven.

Still, need some noodles? Not to worry. Just spiralize some zucchini using a spiralizer. Here is a good spiralizer you can get.

Then sautee your zucchini noodles in some olive oil for 2 minutes. Top with some Parmesan cheese. Buon appetito!

Life can be tough. So, sometimes you just need some comfort food to cheer you up.

But, by very definition, comfort food is packed with carbs. Until now…

This soup is a keto take on traditional steak and potato soup. Instead of potato, you use cauliflower so you save tons of carbs.

And it is just as comforting and delicious. You have tender pieces of steak and cauliflower in a creamy base, along with melted ooey-gooey cheese.

All topped with some green onions for freshness. Check out more keto cauliflower recipes and low carb soup ideas here!

11. Cajun Garlic Butter Steak Bite Meal

We all live busy lives, myself included. And the last thing you want to do after supper is washing a ton of dirty pots and pans.

That’s why I love this meal. It uses only one pan, so you have less to clean up.

It is also as delicious to look at as it is to eat. The steak bites are nicely caramelized and so flavorful. That’s because you use 8 different spices to flavor your steak.

It has a bit of heat, but not too much, so it is kid-friendly. If you like it spicier, just add extra cayenne powder.

The secret to the steak bites being nicely cooked is that you use a cast-iron skillet. Cast iron skillets are great at distributing heat evenly, so your food is cooked well throughout.

If you don’t already have a cast-iron skillet, you can get a good quality one at a great price now.

You’ll also be sauteeing some green bell peppers. But for extra color and nutrition, you can add red and yellow bell peppers too.

12. Grilled Salmon Steak With Herb

Garlic butter is great with salmon steaks. But sometimes, you just want the taste of the salmon to shine through by itself.

This grilled salmon does just that. It is lightly marinated in a basic marinade of olive oil, garlic cloves, lime juice, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs.

So, you taste just the salmon. Perfect if you’re a fish purist.

And it only contains 1 gram of net carbs too. Awesome for those evenings when you’ve almost hit your daily net carbs allowance.

This is also a lovely meal for keto lunch.

  • Calories: 382
  • Fats: 28g

  • Net Carbs: 1g

13. Keto Beef & Broccoli

Beef and Broccoli is a staple at your typical Chinese restaurant. But because of the added brown sugar, it is definitely not keto.

So, what do you do when you have a hankering for some beef and broccoli? Make this instead.

It’s sweet and savory and packed with umami flavor. And the beef has a bit of heat thanks to the fresh ginger.

You won’t believe it’s keto.

To add depth of flavor to your beef, you’ll be marinating it in a mixture of coconut aminos, freshly grated ginger, and garlic.

Do make sure you use coconut aminos, not liquid aminos. That’s because liquid aminos are saltier, and don’t have the sweetness that you need for the marinade.

If you need to stock up on some coconut aminos, make sure you get one that is low in net carbs like this one, or else the carbs can add up quickly.

Serve with some cauliflower fried rice. To make cauliflower rice, you’ll need a food processor like this one here.

Per Serving:

  • Calories: 364
  • Fats: 26g
  • Protein: 23g
  • Net Carbs: 6g

Your basic steak is good and all, but sometimes you want a change. A crusted steak, for example.

But your typical crusted steak is crusted with breadcrumbs. Just ¼ cup of breadcrumbs has 14 grams of net carbs.

And as delicious as a crusted steak is, it’s not worth all the carbs. This crusted steak tastes amazing, and it won’t hurt your waistline.

That’s because you’re crusting your steak with delicious ingredients that are keto-friendly. Ingredients like crisp bacon, toasted walnuts and cheese that are sure to delight your taste buds.

The best part? It has only 1 gram of net carbs. So, you’re sure to stay in ketosis.

The fresh lime juice and red wine vinegar add tanginess. While the avocado adds creaminess, balancing out the acidity of the chimichurri.

And the red pepper flakes add a hint of heat. You’ll want this chimichurri on everything.

Serve with your favorite grilled low carb veggies.

And talking about firing up the grill, there are lots of foods you can grill. One of them is salmon steak.

Besides being delicious, salmon is a good source of potassium. On a keto diet, you want to have enough potassium in your diet.

This comes in handy when you first start the keto diet. Potassium helps combat the keto flu.

This grilled salmon steak is lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. It’s moist on the inside and nicely grilled on the outside.

What takes it over the top is the green onion vinaigrette. It’s sweet and tangy and spicy and really transforms the salmon.
