Keto Christmas is anything but boring! Instead of the classic turkey this year, we decided to make something low-carb, simple, creamy, and nourishing.
This keto chicken mushroom stew is a simple dish with high nutritional value. Garlic and parsley cut through the richness of the creamy sauce, making this dish a perfect comfort food. We suggest making a big bowl of mixed greens salad on the side for an ideal balance. This recipe only takes 25 minutes to make, which leaves you more time to prep for your Christmas party!
Heat butter in a saucepan, then add chicken, onions, and mushrooms, sautéeing for 10-15 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and chili flakes.
Add parsley and minced garlic. Stir to combine, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Add heavy cream, continuing to cook until the sauce thickens (about 3-5 minutes).
Lastly, add parmesan and mix well. Serve warm.
