A complete meal in one pan in about twenty-five minutes, which is the reason to keep it in rotation. Chicken thighs, cauliflower florets, and enough butter to make both of them taste like something.

The order matters. Cauliflower goes in first and gets a few minutes alone to brown in the butter, because once raw chicken hits the pan it releases liquid and everything steams from there.

The published numbers on this one were off by roughly double, listing 1,025 calories a serving. The real figure is about 647, with 49 g of protein and 8 g net carbs. It is also the most adaptable recipe here: almost any keto vegetable works in place of the cauliflower.

  • 1 lb organic chicken thighs cut into 1/4 inch bite-sized pieces
  • 3 cups organic cauliflower chopped into small florets

  6. Add the chicken, garlic and ginger and stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes.
