Keto Lemon Butter Chicken Pasta

Keto Lemon Butter Chicken Pasta Bowls are a creamy, delicious, comfort food with low-carb pasta, veggies, and chicken in a creamy lemon butter sauce with Parmesan.

Imagine a satisfying bowl of pasta and chicken in a creamy sauce that is keto, gluten-free & low carb, and made in one simple skillet!

You don’t need to dream about this because you can easily prepare this bowl of warm keto pasta.

Hearts of Palm Pasta is grain-free, gluten-free, low carb, keto and it tastes very similar to traditional pasta. It is available in angel hair, linguini,  and lasagna varieties.

Many grocery stores, health food stores, and online stores now carry hearts of palm pasta.

I love it when you can make a tasty meal in one skillet because it means fewer dishes to wash which is always a win in my book.

Another favorite low-carb pasta dish we love is Low Carb Grilled Chicken Alfredo.
