Keto Poached Chicken With Scallion Oil
Poaching chicken is a simple, way to product moist, tender meat. I like to pair chicken like this with a salty, scallion oil which is very easy to make and almost requires no cooking. All it takes are a few chopped scallions with some hot oil poured over them. Use this to top any protein, but it is delicious on chicken!
