Keto Smashed Dumpling Tacos Ingredients

Step by Step Instructions

  1. Add the chicken, garlic, ginger, scallions, cilantro, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, five spice, sesame seeds, and cayenne pepper to a large bowl. Mix until combined.

    For this step

    • 1 lb ground chicken
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
    • 4 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
    • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
    • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, tamari or liquid aminos
    • 1/2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
    • 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
    • 1/4 teaspoon Asian five spice
    • 1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds
    • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, if desired
  2. Press about three tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto each mini tortilla, pressing it flat.

    For this step

    • 12 keto tortillas
  3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook each tortilla, starting with the meat side down, for 3-4 minutes or until the meat is cooked through. Then, flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side. Check the thickest part of the chicken with a food thermometer; it must reach 165°F. Cook a few minutes more if needed.

  4. Top with extra cilantro, scallions, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of chili oil.
