Meanwhile, place meat in a large ziploc bag. Add coconut flour through cayenne pepper, then seal bag. Shake to thoroughly coat meat. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add one batch of meat, cooking on each side for a minute until brown. Remove to a separate plate and continue until all meat is done. Add garlic and shallot to skillet and cook for a few minutes. Pour broth in skillet and scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the skillet. Add tamari or coconut aminos and simmer for one minute. Add arrowroot mixture and stir to thicken mixture.
