Keto Chicken Alfredo

This Keto Chicken Alfredo is a rich and creamy dish that combines tender chicken breast with a luscious Alfredo sauce made from heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. The flavors are classic and comforting, making it a perfect choice for a satisfying dinner while adhering to keto dietary requirements. The absence of pasta is compensated with zucchini noodles, keeping the dish low in carbs yet high in flavor.

Ingredients:

• 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized into noodles
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest before slicing.
2. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
4. Add the spiralized zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the Alfredo sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the noodles are tender.
5. Serve the zucchini noodles topped with sliced chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.
