Ingredients for Keto chicken recipe:

• 1 pound of  boneless skinless chicken breasts (thawed)
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 cup of water
• 4 oz of pepperonis
• 1 can 8 oz of tomato sauce
• ½ onion
• 1 can of diced tomatoes, 15 oz
• 1 teaspoon of garlic salt (or can use garlic powder)
• 2 cups of Mozzarella cheese
• 1 Tablespoon of Italian Seasoning
• 1 teaspoon of pepper

How to make Pizza Chicken Keto recipe:

1. Thinly slice or chunk the chicken.
2. Pour about a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet.
3. Brown the chicken evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
4. **The key is to get the chicken browned before you stir it. It adds extra flavor to the sauce without adding fat. 
5. Chop onions and add to the chicken. (I use a small food chopper or processor to quickly and easily do this)
6. Once the onions are translucent cut the pepperonis in half and stir in.
7. Pour in diced tomatoes (not drained), tomato sauce,  and water. Then add garlic salt, salt and pepper, and the Italian Seasoning.
8. Bring to a boil and cover. Reduce heat and let simmer about 10 minutes until sauce thickens.
9. Top with the cheese and enjoy!

Tips for making Easy Pizza Chicken:

I use a small food chopper or processor to quickly and easily chop the onion. You can also add green pepper if you prefer.

If you do not have one of these, I highly recommend them. They are such a time saver.

I usually just chop the entire vegetable and freeze what I don’t need. It’s so nice to be able to just take diced onion or bell peppers out of the freezer for recipes.

Learn how to freeze peppers and  how to freeze onions and you will save so much time in the kitchen!

If pepperoni is your favorite, try making this skillet without the chicken. It’s a great way to try the same recipe many different ways.
