Ingredients

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Use a meat tenderizer with stainless steel blades (or a fork) to tenderize the chicken thighs. This will help to absorb the marinade and shorten the grilling time.
  2. Add the chicken thighs and all other ingredients to a large bowl. Mix well and cover the bowl with saran wrap. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (if time permits).
  3. Grill on medium low heat until brown and slightly charred. Serve with cauliflower fried rice, fried egg, (pickled) vegetables, chopped lettuce and keto friendly dipping sauce (keto nước chấm).

Notes

Shallot oil is recommended, but if time does not permit, avocado oil can be used instead. For the shallot oil, use the same method as making fried shallots. Watch at 3:30 mark and use the fried shallots for another dish: Watch here
