Pro Tips for Success
- Keep It Juicy: Use chicken thighs instead of breasts for extra moisture.
- Crispy Top Layer: Broil for 2-3 minutes at the end for a golden, bubbly finish.
- Low-Carb Thickener: Add ½ tsp xanthan gum to the sauce for a richer texture.
- Dairy-Free Option: Substitute Parmesan with nutritional yeast and use coconut cream.
Serving Suggestions
- Keto Pairings: Serve over cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or with a side of roasted asparagus.
- Meal Prep: Store in airtight containers for 3-4 days. Reheat at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
- Wine Pairing: A crisp white like Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay complements the creamy sauce.
