Sour Cream and Onion Chicken

This Keto Sour Cream and Onion Chicken recipe is a new take on the classic dish that features tender and juicy chicken breasts and rich and creamy onion sauce. Seasoned with garlic powder, salt and fresh black pepper, the chicken breasts are seared until golden in a combo of olive oil and butter. The chicken is finished in a simple sour cream sauce with caramelized onions and Worcestershire. Easy, savory and delicious!

The recipe is easy to follow. Start with the chicken. Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise – so you have four thinner pieces. Pro tip: Freeze the chicken breasts for 15 minutes to firm them up. This will make slicing them much easier. Season the chicken, then pan-sear in a hot skillet until golden. Pull the chicken out of the skillet and toss in the remaining butter and sliced onions. Allow the onions to brown and caramelize, then add the garlic, chicken broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Now, stir in the sour cream and let it heat gently. Add the chicken back to the skillet and let it cook for another minute. Spoon some sauce over the top. Serve the chicken sprinkled with some chopped parsley if you wish.

To make the Sour Cream and Onion Chicken, you will need the following ingredients:
