Keto Grilled Chicken with Herbed Corn Salsa
A different kind of Mexican night with this Keto Grilled Chicken and Herbed Corn Salsa. A non-spicy salsa with crunchy corn kernels over grilled chicken thighs, my children love this one for dinner. It’s really one you can get your fingers dirty with, while eating the juicy chicken.
You can pair this dish with some white rice of chopped up and inside of a tortilla. This twist on Mexican is just delightful!

I'd eat this again but maybe with a little less corn and some brown rice on the side.
Perfect meal for any day of the week 5 stars all the way from me to you.
I actually didn't add the mint cause I didn't want any minty taste otherwise ingridents were good.
Scrumptious and simple meal thanks for sharing it.
I'm not surprised this was delicious since the person who made it is Lilly.
Not my personal favorite but it wasn't bad.
Man you know I tossed the whole damn parmesan cheese bag on this HAHA way too big of a cheese lover to only put 1/4.
Would be a little careful on the spices or it can be too salty for people other than that it was delicious.
Literally bouncing from Mexican recipe to Mexican recipe, all of them look so freaking delicious!! Going to try this out and make churro apple pie for dessert too wish me luck :)
Can't wait to make this again this week the first time I had it my entire family gobbled it up like hungry hippos.
FANTASTIC this was ultra juicy and tasty loved every single thing about it!
