Chicken and Seasoning
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
Vegetables
  • 1 cup bell pepper sliced

  • 1 cup spinach fresh
Sauce and Cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Method
 

Cook Chicken
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chicken pieces and season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
  2. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add the bell pepper and zucchini. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  2. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Make the Sauce
  1. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir in the cream cheese until melted and smooth.
  2. Add the cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
Combine and Serve
  1. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat in the cheese sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
  2. Serve hot and enjoy your One Pan Keto Pollo Con Queso!
