Chicken (or Eggplant/Aubergine) Parmesan : Low Carb : Keto

Chicken's many plus points - its versatility, as well as the ease and speed with which it can be cooked - make it one of the most popular meats around. It has a high level of good quality protein, as well as B vitamins, iron, copper and selenium. The pale flesh has a close texture and a mild flavour that pairs up well with many different ingredients. Never eat raw chicken, and always thoroughly wash your hands, utensils and cutting board as soon as you've cut or handled raw chicken.
Here is a low carb/keto chicken dish you may wish to try:-

  12. My husband and children like chicken parmesan. I prefer lemon chicken so I often prepare a portion of both recipes after breading and frying the cutlets.
