To ensure even cooking, begin by pounding down (flattening) your chicken breast. This process tenderizes the meat and promotes uniformity in cooking.
- Tip: Flatten your chicken breasts ahead of time and store them in portion-sized bags in the freezer. Grab one in the morning to save time.
- If you don’t have a meat tenderizer, simply flatten the meat using a wooden rolling pin.
- Brown the chicken breast, on each side, in a hot pan before seasoning.
How to Prepare Your Chicken Breast
Generously coat the chicken breast with Rabeko Zero Andalouse or Samuri, a mildly spicy tomato sauce that is sugar-free and low in carbs.

Next, season the chicken coating with your preferred spices. I prefer using ready-made seasonings such as “The Keg Chicken and Rub Spice” or “Hot Mamas Barbecue Seasoning” (available in our store). Then you can mix in a dash of Chipotle Chili for an extra kick.

Move the chicken to the air fryer and cook at 375°F until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. The cooking duration will vary from 10 to 20 minutes, considering the thickness of the chicken breast and whether it was browned beforehand.

While the chicken is cooking add 1 cup of riced cauliflower and 1/2 cup of diced peppers, 1/2 cup diced tomato. Add 1/2 cup of broth and microwave for 4 minutes until vegetables are soft. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables have soaked up most of the liquid.
Add in 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or stock, 1 – 2 tablespoons of the Andalouse or Samuri Sauce, a dash of chili powder. Coat the vegetables well.
