Creamy chicken & bacon cabbage carbonara

Hands up if you love a creamy carbonara . We do but the pasta takes us way over our calories so we don’t end up having it ! Well problem solved I have a keto friendly version that is packed full of flavour that doesn’t leave you with belly ache and swollen tummy from too much pasta …

• Chicken thighs
• Butter
• Bacon lardons
• Savoy cabbage
• Garlic
• Onion
• Double cream
• Parmesan
• Salt & pepper

Heat the butter in a large pan place the chicken in the pan and brown season with salt and black pepper once the chickens are browned thoroughly place on a baking tray in the oven to ensure they are cooked all the way through

In a separate pan steam your cabbage

Back to your pan it should be full of golden butter and the juices from your chicken .Add the onion garlic and bacon lardons and fry off until crisp and golden

In a bowl mix some double cream Parmesan and season with salt & pepper.

Drain your cabbage and add to the pan with the bacon lardons give it a good stir ,pour over the cream mixture and stir again to make sure everything is coated and evenly mixed and warm through

Once it’s warmed serve in a bowl with your chicken from the oven and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and a little bit of black pepper
