Prepare to delight your taste buds with our mouthwatering Keto Alice Springs Chicken, a dish that combines tender chicken breasts with savory bacon, earthy mushrooms, and gooey cheese, all coated in a zesty sauce that’s low in carbs but high in flavor. Perfect for satisfying your cravings while staying true to your keto lifestyle, this recipe is sure to become a household favorite.
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F, setting the stage for culinary excellence. While the oven works its magic, focus on preparing the star of the show: the chicken breasts. Season them generously with 3 tablespoons of seasoning salt, ensuring that each bite bursts with savory goodness. Let the chicken rest in the fridge, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify while you attend to the other components.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/2 cup of yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon of Swerve (a keto-friendly sweetener), and 2 tablespoons of onion flakes. Mix these ingredients together until they form a luscious sauce, brimming with tangy notes and aromatic undertones. This sauce will serve as the flavorful foundation for our dish.
Next, prepare the bacon, slicing each piece in half and cooking them until they reach crispy perfection over medium-high heat. Set the bacon aside, ready to add its smoky essence to the ensemble.
Using the same pan that danced with bacon, sear the seasoned chicken breasts over medium heat for approximately 4 minutes on each side. This step not only locks in moisture but also imbues the chicken with irresistible flavor.
Now, it’s time to assemble our masterpiece. Grab a 9×13 baking pan and give it a quick spritz of nonstick spray before spreading a thin layer of the prepared sauce on the bottom. Nestle the seared chicken breasts into the pan, creating a canvas for the layers of deliciousness to come.
Top each chicken breast with the crispy bacon, followed by a generous scattering of sliced mushrooms and a decadent blanket of shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the top, ensuring that every bite is infused with its flavorful embrace.
Slide the pan into the preheated oven and let the magic unfold for about 15 minutes. Keep an eye on the chicken, ensuring it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F before proudly presenting this culinary masterpiece to your eager guests or savoring it yourself. With each bite of our Keto Alice Springs Chicken, you’ll savor the indulgent flavors without sacrificing your commitment to a low-carb lifestyle.
