Keto Crunchy Thai Chicken Salad Bowl

There’s someone out there eating plain salad, with the worlds saddest most boring dressing, and I am here to save the day! Who cares about lettuce, I want the maximum number of flavor and toppings and I want it all without busting my macro’s for the day. This crunchy Thai style chicken salad bowl is the answer.

We take the time to marinate the chicken in garlic, ginger, chili, lemongrass, lime juice, and fish sauce. Then we nestle it on top of a cabbage heavy salad with mint and cilantro. Don’t forget to save half of the marinade, because we use it as the base for salad dressing – launching this awesome lunch into the stratosphere of deliciousness.

• 2 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon fish sauce

Salad:

• 8 ounces (2-pieces) chicken breasts
• ½ cup shredded red cabbage
• ½ cup shredded green cabbage
• 2/3 cup grated carrot

• ¼ cup blanched almonds

Dressing:

• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

THE EXECUTION

1. Preheat your oven to 400F. Mix together the garlic, ginger, red chili, lemongrass, lime juice, fish sauce, and coconut aminos to create the marinade. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the ingredients together.

2. Use a meat mallet to evenly flatten the chicken breasts. Transfer to a bowl then add half of the marinade, making sure that the chicken is evenly coated. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

3. In a bowl mix together both cabbages, carrot, mint, cilantro, and chives.

4. Spread the almonds out across a baking tray then roast for 6-10 minutes. When they’re done set them aside.

5. Grill the chicken using a griddle pan or a BBQ. Cook through then set aside for a few minutes before slicing.

6. Mix the second half of the marinade with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss the dressing with the salad then serve with the chicken and roasted almonds.
