Ingredients

Chicken Alfredo Bake

  • 1.5 lb Chicken Breasts, 3-4 large chicken breasts, patted dry, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1.5 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  • 3 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt, or more to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 3 tbsp Olive Oil, coconut oil or avocado oil
  • 3 cup Keto Alfredo Sauce, click for recipe (I doubled my keto alfredo sauce recipe) or use jarred sauce
  • 3 cup broccoli florets, fresh, steamed for 2 minutes in the microwave
  • 2 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

Instructions

For the Chicken Breasts

  • Mix all of the spices (Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder) in a small bowl.
  • Add the chicken to a large bowl and pour on all of the spices. Toss the chicken to coat the pieces evenly.
  • Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or frying pan to medium heat.
  • Cook the chicken breast pieces for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the chicken breasts reach 160 degrees (they’ll continue to cook to 165 degrees as they rest).
  • Remove from the heat.

For the Chicken Alfredo Bake:

  • Add about ½ cup of alfredo sauce to the bottom of a large (9×13) baking dish. Spread it evenly.
  • Add half the chicken and the broccoli. Add 1 cup of alfredo sauce (distribute as evenly as possible) and add 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese to the top.
  • Repeat step 2 with the remaining sauce, chicken and cheese.
  • Preheat the broiler to low heat. Cook the chicken alfredo bake for 2-4 minutes to melt the cheese and brown some of it.
  • Optional: Top the dish with fresh parsley.
