Keto Lemon Chicken – Low Carb Lemon Parmesan Chicken

One of the most popular recipes on the blog is one of my own creations: Keto Lemon Chicken . I’ve had it on the blog for a few months now, but I wanted to give it a proper intro.

What Part of the Chicken Should You Use?

I used chicken thighs, but you could also use chicken tenders or chicken breast. (It’s best to use chicken thighs since they’ll be more juicy.)

My favorite part is the sauce! Only a few ingredients are required to make this delicious sauce – Seasonings, garlic, chicken broth, lemon juice, and heavy cream are all required.

Is it possible to keep leftover Keto Lemon Chicken Thighs in the fridge?

Absolutely! Put them in an airtight jar and keep them in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.

What Should You Serve With Keto Lemon Parmesan Chicken?
