Keto Chicken Alfredo with Shirataki Noodles Recipe

Keto Chicken Alfredo with Shirataki Noodles Recipe

Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2 large chicken breasts, seasoned with salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
For the Alfredo Sauce:
1/4 cup butter
1 cup heavy cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
A pinch of nutmeg (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Noodles:
2 (7 oz or 200g) packages of shirataki noodles (also known as konjac or miracle noodles)

Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Remove from the skillet, let rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.

Prepare the Shirataki Noodles:
Rinse the shirataki noodles thoroughly under cold water for a couple of minutes to remove the natural odor.
Boil the noodles for 2-3 minutes, then drain. Return them to the hot pot (off the heat) to dry out any remaining water. Set aside.

Make the Alfredo Sauce:
In the same skillet used for the chicken, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg, if using.

Combine:
Add the shirataki noodles to the sauce, tossing gently to coat. Add the sliced chicken on top of the noodles and toss again to combine everything well.

Serve:
Serve the Chicken Alfredo hot, garnished with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
