Ingredients
- 800 grams Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 60 ml Coconut aminos
- 30 ml Fresh lime juice
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon Erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 12 Skewers
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken thighs into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine coconut aminos, lime juice, minced garlic, ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, red chili flakes, erythritol, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Step 3
Add chicken cubes to the marinade, making sure each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Step 4
Soak the skewers in water for about 30 minutes if using wooden skewers to prevent burning during cooking.
Step 5
Thread 4-5 pieces of marinated chicken onto each skewer.
Step 6
Heat coconut oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat, or preheat a grill to medium-high.
Step 7
Grill the chicken skewers for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until chicken is fully cooked and has nice grill marks.
Step 8
Serve the keto Indonesian chicken sate with a side of low-carb peanut sauce or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
