Keto Chicken Florentine – Important Notes

  • If you don’t have white wine, then you can replace that with beer or combine 1/4 cup chicken broth with 2 tsp lemon juice.
  • Before cooking the chicken, bring it to room temperature and pound the chicken with even thickness (use a meat mallet). Pat dry the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and rub with olive oil.
  • Try to use fresh spinach for the perfect texture instead of frozen.
  • For the cream cheese use part-skim ricotta cheese instead

What Part Of Chicken To Use?

I am using boneless skinless chicken breasts. You can also use chicken thighs instead of breasts, cooking time will slightly higher, cook until the internal temperature reaches 165F, when a meat thermometer is inserted into the thickest part.

When cooking with chicken thighs, it will leave a lot of fat in the pan. If you want less runny or fatty sauce, remove the fat while cooking.

Can I Store This Easy Keto Chicken Florentine?

Absolutely! You can portion them into different meal prep container or airtight container and store in the refrigerator up to 4-5 days. When ready to eat, reheat in microwave or oven.

How To Serve This Delicious Low Carb Chicken Florentine?

You can start eating right after it’s done from the skillet. But you can serve with broccoli and zucchini alongside or with cauliflower rice or mashed cauliflower.
