White Chicken Chili

This white chicken chili is loaded in tons of flavor. It has a very rich and creamy texture to it, which makes it very filling. You can add beans to it (it’s hard to call it a chili without the beans) and it will only add an extra 4 carbs per serving to your meal.

Total carbs is 4 Carbs per serving

Ingredients:

1 Cup of Diced Onion

2 (4 oz) Cans of Green Onion

2 Cloves of Garlic

4 Cups of Chicken Broth

1/2 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream

8 oz. Cream Cheese

2 Cups Shredded Cheese

1 Cup Mexican Cheese

1 Tsp. Cumin

1 Tsp. Oregano

1/2 Tsp. Black Pepper

1/2 Tsp. Salt

1/8 Tsp. Cayenne Pepper

Salsa Chicken

Salsa Chicken is a go-to in the Litke household. It is seriously the EASIEST meal to throw in the crockpot and you can just throw this on a low carb tortilla or shell since they just recently came out with keto taco shells (can I get an amen?). You can also make this into some taco salad meat. Tons of different options and still a very easy meal to throw together.

Ingredients:

2 Pounds of Chicken

1 small jar of salsa

1 oz. Taco Seasoning (homemade would work great)

Crack Chicken

Chicken Crack is another favorite of ours that also goes in the crockpot. This makes great sandwiches and I love to pair this with a salad.

Ingredients:

2 Pounds Chicken Breasts

1 (8 oz.) Block of Cream Cheese

1 Cup of Bacon Crumbles

1 oz. Ranch Seasoning Mix

1 Cup Shredded Cheese (I like to use cheddar)

Lemon Garlic Chicken

This was one of the tastiest chicken legs I have ever bitten into. The flavors were out of this world and oh my stars was it to die for!

1 Lemon for topping

1 sliced onion

1/4 Cup Olive Oil

1/4 Teaspoon Salt

1/4 Tsp. Pepper

Crack Chicken Soup

Nothing more hearty than Crack Chicken Soup! This is filled with chicken, ranch and bacon so I think that’s all I need to say…haha!
