Even though I cooked the chicken to dust, I still want to marry myself for the sauce.

Cooked this for supper, my husband, who is not on Keto said this recipe s a keeper, absolutely delicious.

This recipe was absolutely delicious… I did add 1/8 of a cup of a dry white wine and then reduced the sauce. That added a negligible amount of calories and carbs to the entire recipe. My husband asked that I keep this in the rotation so that’s a plus for me.
