Low Carb Creamy Balsamic Chicken With Sundried Tomatoes
I love the flavor contrasts in this dish. The sauce is very creamy, but the sun-dried tomatoes give a tart bite! The basil gives such a fresh note and the mushrooms are so meaty in flavor! Not to mention the smoked paprika ties the dish all together with a nice smoky note. This will easily become a go-to dish...it is made in one pan!

In a heavy bottomed pan, heat pan until very hot, then add half of the avocado oil. Add the chicken and sear on each side. This should be about 4-5 minutes on the first side and 2-3 minutes on the second side. Cook the chicken completely through. Remove chicken to a clean plate.Step 4

Made this for the first time today. It was delicious! I do not like mushrooms, so I cooked the recipe without and then ate the meal with a cup of fresh spinach. Soooo tasty. Definitely will become a staple go to meal for us.

Super good! But I had to substitute some things haha. I used roasted red bell peppers instead of sundried tomatoes. I didn’t have balsamic vinegar, so I used 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar with 1 teaspoon monkfruit. I also added 1/2 cup of heavy cream to thicken the sauce a little more. Yum!

Oh my goodness, we loved this dish. My husband had it with basmati rice. I will definitely make it again, but next time I will use larger breasts (I used smaller ones today and I’m still hungry!!)

This dish was amazing! I substituted seared red peppers and added Rosemary and it was like I was in another country enjoying a five-star meal! Will definitely make again.

Very good! Next time I will cut the chicken into tenders instead of just halves. I also added an extra garlic clove.

My husband is allergic to mushrooms, any suggestions for a substitute?

Fresh Spinach may be a tasty substitute

I made it without mushrooms and it was tasty!
IneffableAvocado320770 a year ago
This is excellent. Tons of flavor. I used heavy cream instead of half and half because that's what I had. My husband liked it so much he told me I should make this weekly.
AwesomeCauliflower779025 a year ago
I made this tonight! I did change a few things, I am just starting back up on Keto so I used heavy cream over half and half. Depending on the size of the mushrooms you use add them with the garlic before the sun dried tomatoes. This would be amazing over spaghetti squash.

I was super excited for this but it’s super bland. I added so much seasoning and it’s still bland.

I have made this recipe over and over. If is excellent. Have substituted cherry tomatoes for the sun dried, canned vs fresh mushrooms. Have used breasts and thighs. Popular recipe in our fam. Thanks

Very tasty! I had frozen chicken breasts that I boiled up & used but really, for a more tender chicken, use fresh if you can. The sauce has an amazing taste & this is a quick and easy recipe to do. 👍

Made this last night and it was so delicious. And super simple. I will be adding this to my rotation for sure! Also, win-win because my husband wanted chicken and dumplings but he's more of a dumpling fan..... so I used the chicken to start his meal and the rest of it I used for mine!

I was skeptical with vinegar but this is absolutely amazing. My whole family loved it!
SplendidRadish617600 a year ago
Good, it tried breast and thighs. Dark meat doesn’t have as good of texture. It’s nice on fresh spinach.
FastingVeeString a year ago
I used both as well and liked it but agree that white meat was better. I put mine on spinach like you suggested and yummy!! So good!
