Low Carb Firecracker Ground Chicken

A quick and delicious low-carb meal featuring ground chicken with a spicy-sweet flavor, ideal for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat oil: In a skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Wait until the oil shimmers slightly.
  2. Cook chicken: Add the ground chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until it’s browned and fully cooked, about 7-8 minutes.
  3. Add sauces and spices: Stir in the soy sauce, sriracha sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are combined.
  4. Combine and heat through: Cook for another 5 minutes until heated through and ingredients are well blended.
  5. Garnish and serve: Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, use tamari in place of soy sauce. Adjust the amount of sriracha to customize the spice level. The sesame oil adds flavor and prevents sticking, but vegetable oil can be used if needed.
