Keto Chicken Paprikash with Cauliflower Rice
A comforting Hungarian classic made keto-friendly by swapping traditional noodles with cauliflower rice. This recipe is egg-free and perfect for a cozy weeknight dinner.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Chicken thighs
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 1 medium Onion
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Sweet paprika
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
- 1Cut the 1.5 lbs cauliflower into florets. Place the florets in a food processor and pulse until the pieces are about the size of rice grains. Set aside.
- 2Measure 2 tbsp olive oil into a 12-inch skillet and heat over medium heat (350°F / 175°C). Add the 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until it is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the 3 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until you can smell its fragrance, about 1 minute more.
- 3While the onion cooks, season the 1.5 lbs chicken thighs with 1 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp black pepper, and 2 tbsp sweet paprika. Ensure each piece is coated evenly.
- 4Add the seasoned 1.5 lbs chicken thighs to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook, turning occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes total.
- 5Pour 1 cup chicken broth into the skillet. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low (250°F / 120°C). Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- 6Carefully remove the cooked 1.5 lbs chicken thighs from the skillet and place them on a plate. Stir 1 cup sour cream into the sauce remaining in the skillet. Cook over low heat, stirring, for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Do not let it boil.
- 7Add the prepared cauliflower rice to the thickened sauce in the skillet. Stir to combine and cook until the cauliflower rice is tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- 8Return the cooked 1.5 lbs chicken thighs to the skillet with the cauliflower rice and sauce. Stir gently to coat the chicken. Serve immediately.
