Keto Chicken with Mushroom Sauce Recipe
One of my favorite meals, before we started eating healthier, was chicken cooked in cream of mushroom soup. Even before we started following a ketogenic diet, I gave up most processed foods like cream soups. Since then, I’ve missed Chicken & Mushroom Gravy even though I hate mushrooms. There is something so delicious about the mushroom gravy that I love, but as I’ve mentioned previously I hate mushrooms. I’ll pick out every single one. I don’t know why they gross me out so much, but I just cannot bite into a mushroom. In fact, my oldest daughter has to chop them up for me because they gross me out. Picky much? Yes, I will fully admit that I am a picky eater. It might be why most all of my recipes are so simple.
Anyway, I looked back at my Keto Green Bean Casserole Recipe for inspiration to make this recipe as I wanted a homemade mushroom gravy. I also wanted to make sure it was simple to make as I know that most don’t have time to spend hours in the kitchen prepping a meal, cooking, and cleaning. With that in mind, this Keto Chicken with Mushroom Sauce Recipeis a one-pan meal for easy clean-up. Simply pair with your favorite veggie or a big leafy green salad for a complete meal.
