Keto Chicken Veggie Bake
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 8 ounces shortcut bacon, chopped
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1 head broccoli, chopped
  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped
  • 1 leek, chopped
  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Cheddar cheese
Instructions
1
Firstly, set the oven to a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large cooking vessel over medium heat. Add diced bacon, chopped onion, and minced garlic; cook until the onion becomes tender, taking approximately 5 minutes. Add diced chicken to the pot and cover it with a lid. Cook until the chicken loses its pink color in the center, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, heat a separate cooking vessel over medium heat. Add the remaining butter and heavy cream to it, allowing them to warm through for 2-3 minutes. Add softened cream cheese and cook until it's fully melted, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes. Remove the sauce from heat.
4
Then, stir in Parmesan cheese to combine with the sauce.
5
After that, if there's any excess liquid from the chicken mixture, drain and discard it. Transfer the chicken mixture to a large baking dish.
6
Pour the sauce over the top of the chicken mixture and sprinkle grated Cheddar cheese on top.
7
Finally, bake the dish in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and golden brown to your liking, taking approximately 10 minutes.
