Low Carb Meals The Best Low Carb Chicken Marinade for a Guaranteed Instant Pot Win
There’s nothing that I love more than a good chicken marinade. The only problem with most of the store-bought ones is that you never really know exactly what’s in it. That’s exactly why I started making my own homemade marinades. If you’ve got an instant pot, you can make what is hands down my favorite low carb chicken marinade recipe of all time. A zesty mix of lemon, paprika, chili flakes, and Italian seasoning make for the perfect combination of ingredients that you’ll keep coming back to time and time again, count on it.
