Thursday
Meal: Pan-Cooked Boneless Chicken Thighs with Ken's Vinaigrette and Blueberries
Description: Boneless skinless chicken thighs are pan-cooked in a skillet until crispy-skinned and cooked through, then drizzled with Ken's Simply Vinaigrette and served alongside a small handful of fresh blueberries for a bright, low-carb contrast.

Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately 0.5 lb of chicken thighs (about 2 thighs); assumed cost at $3.19/lb = $1.60 for the portion. Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of vinaigrette over the finished chicken and serve with approximately 1/4 cup blueberries (roughly 1.5 oz), which adds only about 5g net carbs.
