In a medium bowl, combine coconut aminos, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, and liquid stevia to create the marinade.
Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Discard any leftover marinade.
Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is nicely charred.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the grilled chicken with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
Enjoy your Keto Grilled Teriyaki Chicken with a side of steamed vegetables or a crisp salad!
