Keto Greek Chicken is a staple recipe in my house. The flavours are so delicious that it is the perfect recipe for when we have company over. We often have all the ingredients on hand which makes it even easier. I find recipes like keto greek chicken, that have the most basic ingredients to be the most delicious! The only fresh ingredients you need on hand is the chicken thighs and the lemon – the rest are pantry staples!

I used truLOCAL chicken thighs that were delivered to my door! This meat was given to me for free however all opinions are my own. There is a coupon code offered: KETOCANADATOP that provides you with free top sirloin steak on your first order.

You can substitute the chicken thighs for chicken breast however chicken thighs were MADE for a dish like this!

Get your Kids Involved

This marinade is so simple, you can even get the kids involved! My daughter Taylor didn’t want to eat chicken with the marinade but she eagerly helped me prepare it which is a great way to get her involved and off the iPad! I like to use a measuring cup to quickly measure the ingredients. These Pyrex measuring cups are a staple in our kitchen.

Cooking Method for Keto Greek Chicken

It was a warm winter day here, so we turned on the bbq for the first time in months! If you can’t bbq you could roast these skewers in the oven or even pan fry on the stove top. Just make sure it gets to the 165 degree F internal temperature. The chicken from truLOCAL was out of this world amazing!

There was a lot of marinade left over. Feel free to save half for another day or double the amount of chicken you use. Tossing the chicken cubes in a bag with the marinade and putting them on the skewers before cooking is another great option. You can also skip the skewers all together and marinate the chicken thighs whole. I don’t have the nutritional info for this marinade because I’m not that savvy at this recipe blogging stuff yet! This is a keto friendly recipe, the red wine vinegar had some carbs but it seems liked very little was absorbed by the chicken. I hope that you will give this recipe a try and let me know how you liked it!
