Creamy Keto Chicken and Spinach Skillet

How to make it

1. 1

   Cut the chicken thighs into bite sized pieces. Season them generously with salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil or avocado oil, if using. Brown the chicken pieces in the hot skillet until cooked through and lightly golden. This usually takes about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

4. 4

   Stir in the heavy cream and softened cream cheese. Whisk constantly until the cream cheese melts and the sauce is smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the spinach wilts down into the sauce. This only takes a couple of minutes.

6. 6

   Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Stir to coat the chicken with the creamy spinach sauce. Warm through for another minute or two.

7. 7

   Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious keto meal.
