People are always looking for cheap, easy to make keto dishes. I realize that sometimes I go over the top with crazy Sous Vide stuff or wrapping bacon with pork, then bacon, then more bacon, then stuffing with cheese. But sometimes its nice just to whip something together real quick without all the fancy equipment. For this recipe, we’re using a super cheap and keto friendly chicken cut, the chicken thighs! The spice comes from chili garlic sauce made by the same people who make Sriracha. This particular sauce has less carbs than the normal Sriracha but a similar flavor.

Here’s the finished result, don’t they look good?

Start by applying salt and pepper to the front and back of the chicken thighs. I get my chicken thighs from BJ’s and they come with 8 packs of four thighs each so you can use them for multiple recipes. If you want to get even cheaper you can buy bone in / skin on thighs for about half the cost of these.

Next, assemble the sauce in a large mixing bowl. Now, take a small onion and slice it into strips.

Throw all the ingredients into the bowl and mix it, coating them as well as possible.

Finally, place the chicken thighs in an oven capable skillet. Then pour the rest of the marinade and onions over the chicken.

And its that easy! 35 minutes at 400 degrees and they’re done.
