Keto doesn’t have to mean always high fat.
As long as you are already burning fat from other high fat, low carb days, you can keep burning fat some days by staying low carb and lessening your fat intake.
My biggest struggle while following a keto diet is continuing daily consecutive high fat meals. Keep the skin on or exchange chicken breasts to chicken thighs to increase fat as desired.
The following 10 Amazing Keto Chicken Recipes
help me stay on track.
1. Chicken Breasts with Brown Butter-Garlic Tomato Sauce
Simply learn to omit flour when a recipe like this one asks you to dredge in flour. It isn’t needed in our case. Just pat breasts dry and saute.
3. Tieghan is extremely talented and always impresses me with her recipes. This greek lemon chicken bowls with sizzled mint goddess sauce. is easily converted to a Keto friendly recipe by switching couscous or orzo for Cheesy Almond Polenta (Low-Carb, Keto Friendly)
4. This Sautéed Chicken with Sage Browned Butter don’t dredge it in the flour, otherwise it makes a great Keto dinner for the whole family.
5. If you limit the sun dried tomatoes to a few well placed flavor bursts CHICKEN WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATO CREAM SAUCE will be a winner.
6. Another great go-to for me from Damn Delicious is CHICKEN FLORENTINE WITH WHITE WINE CREAM SAUCE I simply switch out the wine for chicken broth to limit the carbs.
7. Sauteed Chicken in Mustard-Cream Sauce
Doesn’t that look good?
8. Need a break from cream sauces, top this…Chipotle Glazed Chicken with Guacamole Sauce by omitting the brown sugar. Great on the grill too.
9. Sometimes I need a salad night while still keeping in ketosis. Chicken Cordon Bleu Salad with Warm Bacon Dressing becomes a quick weeknight dinner with leftover chicken. Spinach is a great low carb green that loves to be paired with a warm bacon dressing.
10. Chicken with agrodolce sauce just means sweet and sour. Punchy is a great description. Omit the flour and add a little more oil while sauteing the chicken then serve over Cheesy Almond Polenta (Low-Carb, Keto Friendly) or with a cheese souffle on the side. Delish.
I hope this Sprinkle of a few of my favorite lighter Keto friendly recipes helps you keep up the good work.
