If you are a busy individual and doesn’t have time to cook fancy meals but still want something healthy and delicious on the dinner table, then this dish is definitely for you.
The Chicken Avocado Cucumber Nori Roll requires simple and keto-friendly ingredients that are readily available in your kitchen. You can add this to your lunch or dinner table or just prepare this for your snack.
One of the main ingredients of our dish is the delicious nori sheet. Nori is the healthiest seaweed you can find in the market. It has a wholesome nutrition profile that both benefits our health and helps us maintain our figure. With only 35 calories in 100 grams of nori sheets, nori perfectly complements our goal towards losing extra weight.
Apart from its low calorie content, nori is known for being vitamin-filled. It has large amounts of folate and vitamin A that helps protect our bodies against certain diseases like cancer. This seaweed is also packed with tons of B vitamins and vitamin C for strengthening our immune system. Using nori in our dish makes it a lot tastier and flavorful.
Avocados and cucumbers also make an excellent combination for the rolls. They complement the seaweed’s flavor and also gives our skin a refreshing feeling. To add protein to the rolls, we will add chicken to the filling. Spice the rolls with sesame seeds and paprika if you like.
How to Make Keto Seaweed Wraps with Cucumber Chicken and Avocado
To create the thinly sliced cucumber, use a mandoline slicer if available. Place the cucumber slices on one half of the nori sheet but leaving about half an inch of the end uncovered.
Spread some cream cheese on top of the slices. Add the avocado slices and shredded chicken.
Garnish with sesame seeds and paprika. Dip your fingertips in water and gently wet the end of the nori sheet that you left uncovered earlier. Roll the sheet carefully and put aside.
Do the same for the rest of the ingredients. Half the rolls and serve at once. Best eaten with coconut aminos as dip.
