Keto One Pot Chicken and Mushrooms

I am all for simple, easy Keto dinner recipes and this one takes the cake. Keto One Pot Chicken and Mushrooms has all the perfect ingredients for the ultimate Low Carb meal. Tender chicken thighs are seared to perfection and then joined in with butter-sauteed mushrooms. The pan is deglazed with a bit of apple cider vinegar to lift and brighten all the flavors. Some chicken stock is added to finish cooking the chicken until it is tender. This dish would be wonderful paired with cauliflower mash or puree as well as a side of cabbage or other vegetables.

What type of chicken thigh should I use?

The recipe uses boneless skinless chicken thighs, but feel free to use skin-on and bone-in chicken thighs too.

How can I switch this dish up?

You can substitute the acid for any other vinegar or lemon juice. Feel free to add any assortment of herbs you would like to other than parsley you could use thyme or rosemary and so forth.

What should I serve with this dish?

Serve this dish with side dishes like Keto Romano Cauliflower Mash https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-romano-cauliflower-mash and Keto Bread Rolls https://www.carbmanager.com/recipe/keto-bread-rolls.

    Didn't anyone notice that 1 bowl = 0.3 ounce, which is obviously wrong? Dear Recipewriter would you recalculate please?

        I made this and it’s very good. I added herbs and chives and a dash of Dijon mustard.

          When do we return the chicken to the pot -- before adding the chicken stock, or after the stock?

            Agree - no mention of adding the chicken back in yet it shows it in the pic. Depending on what kind of chicken you use, 3-4 min a side is not enough time to cook. Personally, I would add it back right before the stock if boneless or if bone-in, finish it off in the oven while the sauce simmers at 325. I am finding a lot of these recipes on CM are lacking in proper instructions. :-(
