Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cook chicken wings using your favorite method. I like to deep fry mine in 385 degree avocado oil until it is extra crispy.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter on medium heat.
  • Add soy sauce (or Tamari/aminos), sambal, sugar free orange marmalade, brown sweetener (swerve is what I used), ground ginger, onion powder, sesame oil, and  garlic powder. Stir until the brown sweetener is dissolved.
  • Measure 1/4 cup water and mix xanthan gum with it. Pour half it into the mixture and stir – it will get thick fast. Pour the other half if you want your sauce thiccc.
  • Toss the chicken wings in as much sauce as your heart desires. Garnish with sesame seeds and scallions.

Low Carb (Keto Friendly) Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken

This is our take on Tawainese style Popcorn Chicken aka a dupe for Tastea’s Kickin’ Chicken 👯‍♀️this spicy, salty, savory snack is really popular at bubble tea shops around the world. Regina and I once flew to LA and sped like lunatics from the airport to get to a Tastea before closing time and still missed the cutoff. We had always wondered what type of mystical spice gave this type of popcorn chicken a kick so we asked one of the workers at Taste. The secret to SPICY AF popcorn chicken? Simply cayenne 😂

Chicken Marinade

  • 1 Lb Chicken thigh meat

  • 1/2 Tsp Chinese five spice powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp Minced garlic
  • 1/2 Tbsp Xanthan gum

Seasoning coat

  • 1 Tbsp Cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 Tsp Chinese five spice
  • 1/2 Tbsp Golden Monkfruit sweetener
  • 1/2 Tbsp Asian chicken flavor granules Optional
  • 1 Tsp Black pepper

Instructions

  • Cut up bite sized pieces of chicken thigh meat. Throw it in a bowl and mix it with soy sauce, Chinese five spice powder, black pepper, minced garlic, and xanthan gum. Marinate for 5-10 minutes.
  • In a ziplock bag, mix @isopurecompany whey isolate powder UNFLAVORED, garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper. Add the chicken in there and shake it hard to coat 💯. Pour it on a baking sheet so it doesn’t get soggy or clump together
  • In 375 degree oil, drop the chicken pieces in there one by one and fry until fully cooked and crispy on the outside (about 5-7 minutes depending on the size of the chicken).
  • Drain the chicken of oil. In a separate bowl, mix a tablespoon of cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of Chinese five spice, 1/2 tablespoon of monkfruit sweetener, 1/2 tablespoon of asian chicken flavor granules (optional), and a teaspoon of black pepper. Either sprinkle it onto the chicken or toss it like they do with buffalo wings. Careful when you toss cause it can get salty if it’s not even.
  • Deep fry a handful of Thai basil (should take literally 10 seconds) and mix it with the chicken. Serve with sugar free sweet chili or ranch 👌🏼

Keto Hacks Galore

One of the things that we love about the Keto lifestyle are the substitutions or modifications we can make that can realistically be sustained long term. Like will cauliflower rice ever be able to fill the void of jasmine rice for us? Probably not, but it serves its purpose as a flavor neutralizer underneath whatever flavorful dish is on top of it.

When we first started Keto, there weren’t many tips and tricks floating around at our disposal – luckily, we came across a super awesome Instagram account that offered many hacks to get us through this new way of eating. @ketohackershop is one of our favorite accounts to follow because the information is easy to process and it’s presented in a simple, yet effective way. We’ve noticed that people who are new to this way of eating can get very discouraged or overwhelmed at the beginning due to the amount of information being thrown their way. This account simplifies the concepts and lays out a lot of information for the masses. There are many recipes for keto versions of comfort food and tips on how to order fast food, the keto way. If you are just starting keto or know someone who could use some guidelines, this is just a highly recommended resource.

Below are some examples of the helpful content that can be found on this account:
