Creamy, cheesy, and low-carb, this Keto Chicken Alfredo Broccoli Bake is pure comfort food. Packed with tender chicken, crisp broccoli, and a rich Alfredo sauce, it’s a quick and satisfying weeknight dinner ready in about 30 minutes!


Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for greasing the baking dish)

  • Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. If using fresh broccoli, blanch in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, then drain. For frozen broccoli, thaw and drain any excess water.

  3. In a large bowl, combine chicken, broccoli, heavy cream, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is coated.

  4. Grease a baking dish or cast-iron skillet with olive oil.

  5. Spread the chicken and broccoli mixture evenly into the dish.

  6. Sprinkle extra mozzarella on top for more cheesy goodness.

  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbling.

  8. Let cool for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

  9. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

Rotisserie chicken works great for quicker prep.
Make it spicier with a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Cauliflower can be swapped for broccoli for a different low-carb veggie.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freeze before baking for up to 2 months for an easy make-ahead meal.
