David’s Crack Chicken

Y’all, this one was never meant to be published but due to popular demand, we are going to forever keep this alive on this website. Did you know that David is the primary cook in this household? I just make the keto stuff but he actually does everything else. This recipe is for his famous crack chicken – it’s so good you don’t want to stop eating it. We used to eat it with a bowl of white rice, but this is perfect with cauli rice or mixed veggies. It’s even good by itself. It’s sweet, salty, spicy, and everything in between.

This recipe tastes best with dark meat chicken or wings, but you do you boo boo!

Prik Glua – Thai Salt Chili Sugar Dip

Ya’ll, this dip instantly enhances any fruit you decide to grace this magic dust on – especially ones that have a little sourness to them, like starfruit, kiwis, watermelon, and mangos. If you are living the low carb lifestyle, our favorite substitute for sugar is classic monkfruit sweetener. Allulose is also a great alternative.

Mix equal parts monkfruit sweetener, salt, and dried chili flakes. That’s it!

77 Ways to Pocket-fy Your Meals

Okay, here’s the dealio…we are obsessed with pockets. What is a pocket? It is a meal stuffed into a triangular pocket of deliciousness using flatbread strips and your filling of choice. We exclusively use our holy grail flatbread, Cutdacarb, because it’s easy to work with, takes on whatever flavor you season it with, and it fries up fast as hell. We rely on pocket-fying foods because it is a is a low carb hack to control your carb intake but also still get the satisfaction of eating your favorite foods.

The idea for pocket-fying things is based on our love of Hot Pockets (cue theme song) and the technique of folding a paper football or Greek Spanikopita (shout out to my grade school friend’s Yia Yia for showing us how to do this when we were 8 years old). The technique to fold is the same for all of these. See diagram below:

The pocket-fy process involves picking your filling of choice, adding it at the bottom of the flatbread strip, and using the folding technique shown above.

We deep fry 90% of our pockets in avocado oil. The rest are either pan fried in butter or baked in our toaster oven after being sprayed with avocado oil. Our Keto baes have used their air fryers as well.

Here is a bomb ass list of things you can pocket-fy to give you some meal inspo (we added links to the recipes we’ve posted and also suggestions for ones that may not be as obvious):

Zero Carb Pizza Crust

This one is a throwback to the days we all had to fend for ourselves before all of the keto-friendly products flooded the market. Most people use canned chicken but this one uses my least favorite part of rotisserie chicken – leftover white meat! I swear no matter what you try to do to make it juicy, it gets drier and drier by the second, which is why it’s the perfect “flour” for this zero carb pizza dough. You can use rotisserie chicken or any leftover skinless white meat chicken. The thinner you roll out the “dough” the crispier the crust will be.

Servings: 4
Net Carbs: 1g

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chicken breast (white meat, no skin, shredded – you can use canned chicken breast as well)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup parmesan cheese (grated)

Instructions

  • Using cold white meat chicken, finely shred enough to make two cups. I used a hand mixer until it was super fine.
  • Mix the shredded chicken with the eggs and parm.
  • Spread the mixture onto parchment paper and place another piece of parchment paper over the mixture. Use a rolling pin or bottle of wine to roll the dough until it is thin. Mine was as thin as your standard thin crust pizza. The thinner you roll it, the crispier it will be.
  • Air fry or bake the dough at 400 degrees for 10 minutes (until golden), flip the crust, and finish baking it for another 10 minutes (until golden).
  • Add sauce, mozzarella, and toppings and baking for another five minutes until the topping is melted and to your liking.

  • Carefully pour the hot oil into a heat safe container and add the bacon to the hot pan. Sprinkle about a tsp of #garlicgoals or garlic powder/salt/pepper over the bacon and then add the fried brussels. Give everything a good stir.
  • Lightly pour about 1-2 tablespoons of sugar free maple syrup over the brussels and give them another stir.
  • Serve immediately.
