Steps
- 1.Finely dice 1lb chicken thighs into small pieces. Add to a bowl and drizzle with 1/2 tsp avocado oil, 1 tbsp soy sauce. Season with salt, pepper, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, the juice of half a large lime, 1/2 tbsp powdered monkfruit or sweetener, & optional: 1 tbsp gluten free flour or cornstarch. Mix well, then pop in the oven at 400F for 32 mins, or airfry at 400F for 22 mins.
- 2.For the base, I used my Kaizen high protein lowcarb rice, but use any rice you like.
- 3.For the salad/slaw, I thinly shredded 1/4 head cabbage with a mandolin, add it to a bowl with 3-4 thinly sliced Persian cucumbers, 1 thinly shredded carrot, 3 finely sliced scallions, 1 thinly sliced jalapeño (remove seeds if you dont want it too spicy), and a large handful of roughly chopped cilantro. Add 1 tbsp sesame oil, 3 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tbsp tamari or soy sauce, a pinch of salt and pepper, then mix really well, taste and adjust. I added 1 tbsp of toasted sesame seeds for a nice crunch.
- 4.For the Spicy Lime Sauce, mix together 3 tbsp mayo, 2 tbsp sriracha, 1.5 tbsp unsweetened ketchup, the juice of half a lime, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, and 1/2 tsp powdered monkfrit. Mix well, taste, and add 2 tbsp of water to thin out the sauce if you wish.
