Wash and hull the fresh strawberries. Mash them with a potato masher or pulse in a blender for a smoother texture. You should yield about 4 cups of mashed strawberries.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the mashed strawberries, powdered monk fruit sweetener, and chia seeds.
Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring consistently, until it begins to simmer gently (about 5 minutes).
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the no-sugar pectin and fresh lemon juice. Mix thoroughly until the pectin is completely dissolved.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then spoon the jam into clean, freezer-safe containers, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top for expansion.
Let the jam cool completely to room temperature before sealing the containers with lids.
Store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 1 year. Thaw in the refrigerator before use.
