These stormy, cold days make them long for spring and wanting past solace food sources. One of my #1 dishes has consistently been a Broccoli Cheddar Chicken and Rice Casserole. There is simply something so encouraging about a decent messy dish. I as of late made this Keto Broccoli Cheddar Chicken that is a low carb rendition of that exemplary dish. It is generous, simple and ideal for occupied evenings!

This formula starts with a huge stove safe skillet. Warmth to medium warmth add margarine, cubed chicken and flavors, mix so the chicken is covered with the flavors. Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes or until it has sautéed on all sides. Eliminate the chicken from the skillet and put in a safe spot.

In a similar skillet add the extra margarine, garlic, almond milk, cream cheddar and some portion of the cheddar. Warmth over medium warmth blending sometimes. At the point when the cream cheddar has separated whisk the combination so it is totally smooth. A thick cheddar sauce will shape.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into cubes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 5 cups of broccoli florets

For the Cheese Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Topping

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat a large, oven proof skillet to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter, cubed chicken and spices, stir so the chicken is coated with the spices.
  • Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes or until it has browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. 
  • In the same skillet add the cheese sauce ingredients: butter, garlic, almond milk, cream cheese and 1 cup of the cheddar cheese. Heat over medium heat stirring occasionally. When the cream cheese has broken up whisk the mixture so it is completely smooth. A thick cheese sauce will form.
  • Add the cooked chicken and broccoli to the skillet. Carefully stir so the mixture coats the chicken and broccoli well. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
