What it is
Juicy and succulent boneless chicken thighs, marinated in a simple yet flavorful mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and classic Turkish spices like paprika, oregano, and black pepper. Grilled until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, this cut of chicken is naturally richer in fat compared to chicken breast, making it an excellent and satisfying keto protein source. Served typically with a fresh green salad or grilled vegetables.
