Low Carb Instant Pot Pork Stew
This low carb and keto-friendly Instant Pot Pork Stew recipe is a twist on the classic beef stew that we all know and love.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 lbs pork shoulder roast cut into 1 to 2-inch pieces
- 2 large carrots peeled and diced (can omit for strict keto)
- 3 ribs celery diced
- 1 lb turnips (choose medium to smaller ones) peeled and chopped
- pink salt
- cracked black pepper
- 1/2 tsp organic garlic powder
- 1 tbsp organic onion powder
- 1 cup dry white wine *See notes
- 6 cups chicken bone broth can use store bought
- 8 fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 organic bay leaves
- 1 tsp xanthan gum
- fresh flat-leaf parsley chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Pat the pork dry and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the Instant Pot on saute.
- Place 1/3 of the pork in the Instant Pot on the sear setting. Let the pork sear on all sides until no pink shows. Remove meat with a slotted spoon and place a bowl. Repeat with another 1/3 of the pork (add more oil if needed), and then the final 1/3
- Return all of the pork to the pot, add the remaining ingredients except for the xanthan gum and parsley. Stir to combine.
- Close the lid and steam valve on the Instant Pot.
- Cook on high pressure for 35 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before doing a quick release.
- Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf.
- Set the Instant Pot to saute and whisk in the xanthan gum. Continue to stir until the stew begins to thicken.
- Turn off the Instant Pot.
- Taste and add salt and pepper as needed and stir in chopped parsley.
Notes
Can omit the wine and use chicken bone broth in its place.
