Thai food is one of life’s pure luxuries

Thai food is one of life’s pure luxuries – I love the interesting flavors it brings in – often fresh and light in comparison to English food which is a completely different pallet.

I don’t think I would have survived living a keto way of life if I couldn’t eat flavorsome food like this.  This coconut and lime chicken is actually really simple to make and is perfect for keeping the carbs low.

What can I eat my coconut curry lime shredded chicken with?

As in the picture, this Keto dish goes great with a number of different low carb sides.

This is good when you’re trying to use up ingredients that you already have in, rather than having to buy yet another product.

I like this with a side of broccoli, green beans, spinach, kale, or even cauliflower rice.

Eating your coconut and lime chicken on the go…

What makes this dish even better is that you can use up leftover chicken to create it – or it’s perfect for batch cooking and packing up to take to work or to freeze for another day.

To make sure nothing leaks into your back I would use Lock & Lock in order to store it, ensuring that it’s airtight.

Imagine coming home to these aromatic smells.

If the idea of coming home to work to the smell of keto shredded coconut lime chicken is ready for you – why not put this in the slow cooker in the morning and leave it on ready to come home to OR use a pressure cooker to cook this dish in 10 minutes – just enough time to get your comfy clothes on after work, or jump in the shower after the gym!

I’ve now tried these all three ways and they are all divine!

Bone Broth

Shop bought broth (stock) can be high in carbs. So why not make your own?

I’ve got a recipe here that talks you through it and shows you how easy it is to make.

Take my advice though, make this in bulk and freeze it, so you have it ready whenever you need it!

What are you waiting for – get cooking now or pin me for later!
