Keto Chicken and Broccoli Salad

This easy Keto salad is packed with protein, flavor and fats. Our simple low carb salad is prepared with diced broccoli florets, peppery arugula, tangy goats cheese, shredded rotisserie chicken, sweet sundried tomatoes and topped with a lemony chive dressing. Perfect served as a low carb lunch or a light dinner option.

What Kind of Chicken Can I Use?

We have used cooked chicken thigh meat for our Keto salad. Thigh meat has more flavor and fats than the white meat of the chicken, however, if preferred, you could use shredded or diced cooked breast meat - any pre-cooked chicken will work in the recipe. This is also a great way to use up any leftover meat from a whole roasted chicken.

Can I Use a Different Cheese?

We have used creamy crumbled goats cheese for our Keto salad recipe. If you would like to use an alternative cheese, diced or crumbled feta would also be a good option. Alternatively, you could use sliced mozzarella or mozzarella pearls. Please be sure to adjust your macros accordingly to account for any changes made to the original recipe.
