Description
Try these delicious Keto Cajun Turkey Thighs! A crispy, spicy recipe satisfying your taste buds, especially paired with non alcoholic wine!
Ingredients
Scale
8 bone-in turkey thighs (2 per person)
Coating:
1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup Cajun Spice Mix*
1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions
- *Keto Low-Carb Salt-free Sugar-Free Cajun Seasoning
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Or preheat air-fryer.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- (I like to add non-stick cooking spray to the pan before adding the parchment. The spray helps to hold down the parchment and it also makes clean up a lot easier.).
- Dry thighs on a paper towel. Set aside.
- In a bowl combine almond flour and Cajun spice mix to make a coating mix.
- Stir to mix well.
- Dip turkey thigh in olive oil and then dredge in coating mix on all sides, top, and bottom. Set thigh on parchment and repeat process for all thighs.
- Bake for 50 minutes or until turkey juices run clear and temperature (with thermometer) reaches 165 F. Or air-fry at 400F for a half hour until juices run clear. Remove from oven. Let sit for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
Notes
- The recipe is based on the keto version and is approximate only. One serving has only 7 grams of sugar for 2 turkey thighs. The net carbs are less important as the natural sweetener has carbs that we don’t count since our body does not absorb them as sugar. In any case, the net carbs per serving (2 thighs) is 18.9
