Creamy Sundried Tomato Chicken (Keto friendly)

Looking for a way to make those chicken breasts less boring? Try slathering them in our creamy sun-dried tomato sauce for a flavorful meal that can be eaten on its own for a low-carb dinner, or paired with your favorite pasta for a well-rounded macro-friendly meal.

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt & pepper. Heat the sun dried tomato oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and brown the chicken on both sides. Remove & set aside.
  2. In the same pan, cook your sundried tomatoes, shallots, and garlic until soft. Add the vermouth and let it evaporate. Then add the chicken stock, milk, and cream cheese. Whisk everything to combine, then return the chicken to the pan. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook until chicken is no longer pink or a meat thermometer registers 165 degrees, about 10 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken from the pan and let the sauce reduce until it’s thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Stir in a handful of greens and let them wilt. Adjust salt and pepper as needed, then spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.

To make this dish even more friendly for keto diets, use half and half or cream instead of the whole milk.

    OMG. This was amazing! I love sundried tomatoes in anything and this helped me get past just eating plain grilled chicken all the time. I added in a bit more garlic and used 2% milk (it was all I had) and it was perfect!
