INGREDIENT NOTES AND THEIR KETO SUBSTITUTION:
SESAME OR AVOCADO OIL:
- Use the sesame oil to provide the true asian taste and nutty aroma. You can use the avocado oil as a replacement.
COCONUT AMINOS:
- It is a replacement for regular soy sauce used for a keto diet. Include the flavor of umami with no gluten or extra carbs.
BELL PEPPER:
- It gives a crunchy texture and color to this dish. It has a normal carb count, which is suitable for a keto diet. You can skip it to lower the net carbs more.
XANTHAN GUM:
- It is used to prepare a thick sauce consistency rather than cornstarch. It helps to stick the sauce with the veggies and chicken.
