Keto Poached Chicken With Scallion Oil
How to Make It
Step 1
Fill a medium saucepan with cool water. Place chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of the pot. Slice ¼ cup ginger and 2 scallions into 2” pieces and place in the pot. Bring the pot to a boil. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to bring the water to barely a simmer.
Step 2
In the meantime, chop enough scallions to make 1 cup. Add in 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger and kosher salt. Heat 2 T canola oil on the stove until almost smoking. Pour over the scallions. Let cool slightly then add soy sauce and vinegar. Stir well.
Step 3
Cook chicken like this until the internal temperature reaches 165 F. Remove chicken from the pot, about 10-14 minutes.
Step 4
Thinly slice the chicken and serve with scallion oil on top. Serve chicken with your favorite low carb vegetable.
