Keto fried chicken with broccoli
Ingredients
- 9 oz. 260 g broccoli
- 2 oz. 55 g butter
- 14 oz. 400 g boneless chicken thighs
- salt and pepper
Per serving
Instructions
- Rinse and trim the broccoli. Cut into smaller pieces, including the stem.
- Heat up a generous dollop of butter in a frying pan where you can fit both the chicken and the broccoli.
- Season the chicken and fry over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Add more butter and put the broccoli in the same frying pan. Fry for another couple of minutes.
- Season to taste and serve with the remaining butter.
Tip!
This keto dish can be cooked with other low-carb vegetables such as zucchini, asparagus, broccoli and spinach. Feel free to use your favorite spices to give this dish more flavor–some paprika, herbs, or onion powder are all yummy options.
Chipotle mayo is a great add!
It's based on the ratios. This recipe makes 2 servings, and there are 66 grams of fat per serving. The majority of the fat comes from the butter, while the rest comes from the chicken thighs. (If you add the optional mayo, that would increase the fat.)
I love a quick, weeknight dinner!
