Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 ½ Pounds Chicken thighs cut into 1 inch pieces
  • ¼ Cup Soy Sauce or Coconut Aminos
  • 3 Tablespoons Keto Brown Sugar substitute
  • 1 Clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Grated ginger
  • ½ Cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • Sesame seeds and sliced green onions for a garnish

Instructions

  • Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-hi heat.  Add the chicken and sauté' until cooked through...about 8 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar substitute, garlic, ginger, water, and xanthan gum.  Whisk to combine.  Pour the sauce into the skillet with the chicken and reduce the heat to medium.  Continue cooking for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
  • Serve topped with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish.

Notes

  • Serve with steamed cauliflower rice for a quick side dish.  I like to buy the already riced cauliflower in the frozen section of the grocery store.
