My Favorite Zoodle Recipe - Chicken Alfredo over Zoodles - 5 Ingredients!

I make this on a weekly basis, it is so EASY and I love how it tastes, did I mention it is Keto Approved?? Most of the ingredients I bought from Costco, and it was ready in about 30 minutes. Also before you think I tricked you, this really is a five ingredient meal! Apparently you dont count salt and pepper!! Enjoy and share!




INGREDIENTS 
  • 2 cups of Chicken - I use a rotisserie chicken from costco 
  • 2 cups of heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cups of parmigiano reggiano shredded - also from costco!
  • 2 tablespoons of butter - I used kerrygold butter
  • 4 medium to large zucchinis (optional - peel the skin off the zucchini - I did it for this tutorial) 
  • 1 or 2 tablespoons of garlic - I love garlic so I put 2 tablespoons
  • pink himalayan salt
  • pepper


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Spiralize your zucchini. If you choose to peel the skins, peel them first! Lay out on a  paper towel and sprinkle a little of the pink himalayan salt over the zoodles. This will help pull the moisture out of the zoodles. Set your paper towels aside.        
  2. Heating a pan on medium heat, let your garlic heat up for a minute or two.  
  3. Add your heavy whipping cream, parmigiano reggiano, and butter. Stir every 2 minutes or as you feel it needs stirring. If the sauce starts to boil, sticking to much to the sides of the pan, lower the heat just a little. The main part of this step is to mix your sauce and have it combine. I like to taste my sauce while its heating. At this time I may choose to add more cheese or heavy whipping cream, feel free to do the same.
  4. While your sauce is heating, you can shred your chicken if needed. If already shredded, skip this step. I shred the whole chicken from costco and save the other pieces for another meal. 
  5. After about 20 minutes, test your sauce to ensure it is heated to your liking. I aim for warm to mildly hot. Moving the heat to medium - low (if not already), add the chicken to the pan. 
  6. After about 3 minutes, add the zoodles to the pan, and fold the ingredients together. Salt and pepper further to taste.
  7. Enjoy :) 

Alternatively I have also made with meatballs and loved this as well. Also, adding mushrooms will add a great low carb bulk to this yummy meal. Share any tips here:
