The Art Of Making My Keto Crockpot Chicken

Keto slow cooker recipes have a quite similar approach most times, but here things will be a little different.

Get ready some peppers (bell peppers preferably), garlic, onion, sea salt, salsa, cream cheese, a couple of spices and of course chicken breast.

Firstly, you will need a sharp knife to slice onion and bell pepper into very thin strips.

Add all the ingredients at once to the slow cooker then cover it. Cook it for about 3 hours on high. If you want to know if your chicken is ready, get a fork and fork the chicken, if it shreds easily that means it is ready.

And there you have it, easy right?

This keto slow cooker chicken breast is so flavored that you will admire the looks. Of all keto crockpot recipes we’ve had in the past, my family likes this the most, and they love it very creamy, so, I try to make mine a lot creamier.

Is The Keto Crockpot Chicken Kid-friendly

If kid-friendly means it doesn’t cause any health complications to kids and doesn’t stir up any allergies then yes, this recipe is completely kid-friendly. 

All kids love chicken, Uhm, maybe not all kids might love chicken but at least 90% of kids love chicken.

Final Words

The time required to prepare this low carb meal is just 10 minutes. But don’t get excited yet. It needs to cook for about 3 hours or 6 hours depending on the amount of heat on your slow cooker. If you set it on low, the chicken should be ready in 6 hours, and if you set it on high, it would be ready in just 3 hours. 

Remember, your first try isn’t the best of you. You might not get it right when trying for the first time, but that shouldn’t make you feel bad. You can always try again and again till you get better. 

Feel free to play around with the ingredients too. But be sure to keep it Keto!
