Keto Sweet Lemon-Brined And Glazed Chicken Breast Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds (680 g) boneless, skinless chicken breast

FOR THE BRINE:

  • 1 tablespoon (15 g) rock salt
  • 16 ounces (475 ml) lemon-flavored Fruit2O
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 dash hot pepper sauce

FOR THE GLAZE:

  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon DiabetiSweet or other polyol-based sweetener
  • 1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic

Method

  1. Cut the chicken breasts into 4 portions, if needed
  2. To make the brine: Dissolve the salt in the Fruit2O
  3. Heating the Fruit2O will help the salt dissolve
  4. Then stir in the rest of the brine ingredients
  5. Pour over the chicken breasts in a shallow, dish small enough that the breasts are submerged and stick the whole thing in the fridge
  6. Three to 4 hours later, get your grill going
  7. When the coals are well ashed or the gas grill is heated to medium, pull the chicken out of the fridge and drain off the brine
  8. Make sure your grill is well oiled and grill the chicken about 7 to 10 minutes per side or until an instant read thermometer registers 180°F (85°C)
  9. To make the glaze: While the chicken is grilling, combine the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer for just 1 to 2 minutes
  10. Brush over the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling
  11. If there’s any glaze left over, drizzle it over the chicken before serving

Makes 4 servings

  1. Each serving will have 2 grams carbohydrate, a trace of fiber, and 38 grams protein
  2. Carb count does not include polyol sweetener
