Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 3 heads of broccoli
  • 1 spanish onion brown onion
  • 1/2 head garlic
  • 3/4 cup parmesan cheese shaved or shredded
  • 3/4 cup fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 oz cream cheese philadelphia
  • 4 tbsp butter kerrygold
  • 1/4 cup french fried onions
  • 2 tsp fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp italian seasoning
  • salt/pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut the skinless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper. Allow to rest for at least 5-10 minutes.
  • While resting, shred the cheeses, peel and chop your onions and garlic, and chop the broccoli florets.
  • Boil a pot of water for your broccoli florets and blanch them for 1-2 minutes. Remove from water and allow to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 400℉. Pat the chicken breast dry and sear in butter on medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Transfer to a paper towel lined dish to collect any drainage.
  • Sautee the onions for 1 minute in the chicken drippings (add more butter if needed). Add the minced garlic at the 1 minute mark and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Add in the remaining butter and 2 oz of cream cheese until melted. Then, add 1 ¼cup heavy cream and 1 tsp Italian seasoning and allow to simmer at medium low heat until thickened.
  • Once it is at a nice consistency, add ⅔ cups fresh mozzarella, ¼ cup cheddar, and ¾ cup grated parmesan. Whisk until the melted cheese and cream are blended into a smooth mixture.
  • Place the chicken and broccoli into the creamy keto alfredo sauce until fully coated. Add more seasoning according to your preference and transfer to a casserole dish. Top with crushed French fried onions.
  • Bake at 400℉ in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the French fried onions begin to form a crust. You can blast it for the last minute or two by switching it from 400℉ to broil. Be careful as it can easily burn!
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool uncovered for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.
