Keto Spanish Style Chicken Drumsticks
This tasty Keto chicken recipe is loaded with flavors inspired by Spanish cuisine. Our low carb dinner recipe is prepared with tender chicken drumsticks, Spanish chorizo, juicy cherry tomatoes, garlic powder, smoky paprika, a hint of lemon zest, and aromatic fresh rosemary. Once prepared, this one-pan dish is simply oven-baked until the chicken is golden and the tomatoes are bursting and caramelized.
Can I Use a Different Cut of Chicken?
We have used drumsticks for our Keto chicken recipe. Drumsticks are a great cut as they are full of fats and flavor as well as being a budget-friendly option. If preferred, you may use an alternative cut of meat such as bone-in thighs or breasts. Please be sure to adjust your cooking times and macros for different cuts. You may also wish to increase seasonings if needed.
Serving Suggestions
Our delicious Keto chicken drumsticks make a tasty lunch or dinner option. For a lighter low carb lunch, serve with a Mediterranean-inspired side salad. For a heartier dinner option, the drumsticks can be served over a bed of cauliflower rice or with a side of buttery cauli mash. You will find a range of delicious accompaniments in our sides section.
