You basically need to write a custom ActionResult that is indicated here in this post

[HttpGet]
public JsonResult GetUsers()
{
    JObject someData = ...;
    return new JSONNetResult(someData);
}

The JSONNetResult function is:

public class JSONNetResult: ActionResult
{
     private readonly JObject _data;
     public JSONNetResult(JObject data)
     {
         _data = data;
     }

     public override void ExecuteResult(ControllerContext context)
     {
         var response = context.HttpContext.Response;
         response.ContentType = "application/json";
         response.Write(_data.ToString(Newtonsoft.Json.Formatting.None));
     }
 }
