Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Sauce

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Optional

  • Steamed broccoli for serving

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot and sprinkle evenly with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning to infuse flavor into the meat.
  2. Prepare the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Add the sauce: Pour the creamy mixture over the seasoned chicken breasts in the crockpot, ensuring the chicken is well covered to absorb the flavors during cooking.
  4. Cook the chicken: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low heat for 7 hours or high heat for 4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  5. Serve: Once cooked, serve the Keto Chicken Alfredo hot, optionally over steamed broccoli or cauliflower rice to keep it low-carb and nutritious.

Notes

  • For thicker sauce, remove the chicken after cooking and simmer the sauce on the stovetop for a few minutes until it thickens to your preference.
  • Substitute shredded mozzarella or a blend of Italian cheeses if you want a different cheese flavor in the Alfredo sauce.
  • To keep the recipe dairy-free, use full-fat coconut milk and dairy-free cheese alternatives, but be aware this may alter the flavor.
  • Steamed broccoli or cauliflower rice add a nice low-carb side that complements the creamy sauce perfectly.
