Paleo Thai Minced Chicken Herbal Salad.

When people go on low carb diets – whether Paleo, Keto, or Whole30 – they often see a dish that looks very similar to the one I’m about to share with you today – minced meat wrapped in lettuce leaves. However, I guarantee that this lookalike dish is going to make you say Wow and feel like you are tasting it for the first time.

This Thai Minced Chicken Herbal Salad looks simple yet it’s layered with 3-dimensional flavor.

It’s spicy, bright/citrusy, and salty/savory.

It’s bold and damn delicious. 🙂

In my online cooking course, we go deeper into how to create amazingly delicious everyday food in under 30 minutes even if you work 50 + hours per week.

Here I share just a taste of how a few simple and unassuming ingredients can bring your food to a level beyond anything you’ve ever experienced. If you love Thai food, I guarantee you’ll love this Thai Minced Chicken Herbal Salad.

Watch the video demo below to see how I build up 3 different layers of flavor, and why waiting until the very end to season your dish is the way to go in this dish.

Bon appetite !
