How to make keto Mexican skillet

Assemble all of your ingredients in one place to make the cooking process easier and less messy.

Then place the chicken pieces into a large mixing bowl, and combine with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything together well to coat the chicken thoroughly.

 

Next, add your seasoned chicken to a skillet over medium-high heat on the stove, and cook the chicken until it is completely cooked through. Then remove the cooked chicken and set aside.

 

Then pour the remaining tablespoon of olive oil into the same skillet, and add the onions and peppers. Saute these vegetables for several minutes until they begin to soften.

 

Once the vegetables have begun to soften, add the heavy whipping cream and chicken broth to the skillet, and stir well to combine.

 

Place the palmini noodles into the skillet and coat with the sauce.

 

Now, mix the cooked chicken into the sauce in the skillet.

Turn the heat down to medium-low, and simmer the mixture until the sauce has thickened before serving.
