Keto Thai Noodle Salad with Pork

Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork Tenderloin
• 12 oz Kelp Noodles
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 medium Carrots
• 1 small Red Bell Pepper
• 0.25 cup Cilantro
• 0.25 cup Mint Leaves
• 3 tbsp Lime Juice
• 2 tbsp Soy Sauce (low sodium)
• 1 tbsp Fish Sauce
• 1 tsp Swerve (or other keto-friendly sweetener)
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil

Instructions

1. 1Place the 12 oz of kelp noodles in a colander and rinse them very well under cold running water for 1 minute. Drain them thoroughly in the colander for 5 minutes to remove excess water.
2. 2Using a sharp knife, cut the 1 medium cucumber into 1/4-inch thick half-moon slices. Peel the 1 medium carrots and shred them using a box grater or julienne peeler. Remove the stem and seeds from the 1 small red bell pepper, then cut it into 1/4-inch pieces.
3. 3Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, aiming for a temperature around 400°F (200°C). Place the 1 lb of pork tenderloin on the hot grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when measured with a meat thermometer; the pork should be lightly browned on the outside. Transfer the cooked pork to a clean cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute, then slice the pork thinly against the grain.
4. 4In a small bowl, combine the 3 tbsp of lime juice, 2 tbsp of low sodium soy sauce, 1 tbsp of fish sauce, 1 tsp of Swerve (or other keto-friendly sweetener), and 1 tsp of sesame oil. Whisk these ingredients together until they are well combined and the sweetener has dissolved.
5. 5In a large mixing bowl, add the prepared 12 oz of kelp noodles, the sliced 1 medium cucumber, the shredded 1 medium carrots, the diced 1 small red bell pepper, the 0.25 cup of fresh cilantro leaves, and the 0.25 cup of fresh mint leaves.
6. 6Add the thinly sliced 1 lb of pork tenderloin to the large mixing bowl with the noodle and vegetable mixture. Pour the prepared dressing evenly over all the ingredients. Gently toss everything together with tongs or large spoons until all components are thoroughly coated with the dressing, then serve the Keto Thai Noodle Salad with Pork immediately.
