Grilled Chicken with Feta and Tomato
This No-Fuss Gluten Free & Keto Grilled Chicken with Feta and Tomato is the Perfect Dinner for Summer! The Marinated Tomatoes and Crumbly Feta Cheese bring the Juicy Grilled Chicken up a Notch in Flavour and Fanciness!
To make this delicious chicken you start by dicing, then mixing the roma tomatoes with the balsamic vinegar, fresh basil, oregano and salt. Add the feta cheese to the bowl, then let marinate for 10 – 15 minutes. Place the feta and tomatoes into a folded piece of tinfoil or a bbq safe (cast-iron) pan.
Preheat grill to medium high heat. Place the tomatoes on the grill. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then put them on the grill as well.
Flip the chicken once, then brush it with the melted butter after flipping. Grill until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes on each side. Remove the feta and tomatoes after about 7-8 minutes. Serve the chicken with the cooked feta and tomatoes placed on top.
WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.
While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.
