My Keto Kitchen
Oct. 3rd, 2017 08:55 pmtonight's dinner: Cheesy chicken & cauliflower a la Grace
1. preheat oven to 350
2. put 3-4 tbsp butter in a 13x9 baking dish and either put in oven or over oven vent to melt
3. chop up one head of cauliflower and one head of broccoli. dump in pan and toss to coat
4. dice up 2 cooked chicken breasts (or a rotisserie chicken from the market). add to pan and toss to combine
5. worry that you're moving too fast, so shift gears to making a keto-adjacent chocolate mousse and dicing the rest of the chicken breasts you crock potted on Sunday
6. you're 30 minutes into cooking now, time to make the sauce! shred about 4 ounces of sharp cheddar and some mozzarella into a nonstick skillet, and dump in some heavy cream, about 1.5 cups. heat over med-low and stir frequently until you get a happy cheese sauce.
7. realize you've done nothing to season this. grab the Penzey's Sunny Paris and dump a heaping tsp into the sauce.
8. pour sauce over veggies & chicken and stir gently to combine. top with more cheese and some chopped bacon (the pre-cooked stuff is perfect here).
9. cook another 10 minutes.
10. om nom nom nom
total oven time was 50 minutes, 30-40 probably would've been fine.
