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.
