Low Carb Creamy Polish Skillet

This Keto skillet is simple to make for a hot lunch, low-maintenance dinner, or your no-frills meal prep. European and Polish cuisines inspire this recipe. Sliced kielbasa makes up the bulk of the dish. Choose your favorite brand sausage - a smoked flavor would be great! Low-carb mushrooms and green beans fill out the meal. The skillet is tied together with a high-fat creamy sauce to fuel your Keto metabolism. In less than 30 minutes, you can have multiple meals prepared. Enjoy this recipe alone or include a favorite Keto side dish if you’re extra hungry.

Always Check Your Nutrition Labels

Sausage seems like a great protein to include in a Keto diet. There’s typically a high-fat content in sausages, but you need to check the nutrition label for some sneaky ingredients. It’s common for sausage brands to add “fillers” to their sausage, which can include gluten products. Look at the ingredient list on the packaging, and you’ll likely find ‘wheat’ listed. Most servings of sausage are low in carbs, but compare brands to find the most Keto-friendly sausage that fits your macros. Avoid sausages that have added ingredients, like peppers, onions, or cheese.

Add Finishing Touches With An Extra Step

Want to turn this creamy skillet into a baked and cheesy skillet? Swap out your stovetop pan for a cast-iron skillet or oven-safe pan. After completing the listed directions, turn your oven broiler on to high heat. Add a ¼-½ cup of your favorite Keto shredded cheese sprinkled over the skillet. Cook the entire skillet under your broiler for a few minutes until the cheese has melted, bubbled, and browned around the edges. Scoop your cheesy skillet onto serving plates and grab any pieces of loose, stringy, melted cheese!
