Variations & Suggestions
Cheesy Delight:
For a cheesier twist, sprinkle some grated Parmesan or mozzarella cheese over the Florentine chicken during the final minutes of cooking.
Let the cheese melt and become gooey, creating a heavenly layer of creamy goodness that takes this dish to a whole new level of deliciousness.
Mushroom Medley:
If you’re a mushroom lover, add some earthy goodness to your Florentine chicken by sautéing a mix of mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, or oyster mushrooms.
Cook them separately with a bit of butter or olive oil until they’re golden brown and tender, then add them to the pan during the final step.
The combination of mushrooms, chicken, and creamy sauce creates a flavor explosion you won’t be able to resist.
Fresh Herbs Infusion:
Elevate the aromatic profile of your dish by incorporating fresh herbs.
Just before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh basil or parsley over the Keto Chicken Florentine.
The herbs add a pop of freshness and brighten up the flavors, making each bite a delightful experience.

Notes
Cauliflower Mash:
Accompany your Keto Chicken Florentine with a side of fluffy cauliflower mash. Simply steam or boil cauliflower florets until tender, then mash them with a touch of butter and season with salt and pepper. The creamy cauliflower mash pairs perfectly with the rich and flavorful chicken and spinach.
Zucchini Noodles:
For a lighter option, consider serving your Florentine chicken over zucchini noodles. Spiralize fresh zucchini into noodle-like strands and sauté them briefly until they’re just tender. The zucchini noodles provide a refreshing and low-carb base that complements the creamy sauce and succulent chicken.
Roasted Vegetables:
Add some color and variety to your meal by serving roasted vegetables alongside the Keto Chicken Florentine. Roast a mix of vegetables like bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and zucchini in the oven until they’re caramelized and tender. The roasted veggies bring a burst of sweetness and texture that perfectly balances the creaminess of the dish.
