Ingredients
Scale
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts
2 cups broccoli florets
1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk
1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Place chicken in crockpot and season with garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Pour cream over the top.
Cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours.
Add broccoli during the last 30–45 minutes.
Stir in cheese at the end, mix well, and serve.
Notes
Add broccoli toward the end of cooking to prevent it from turning mushy.
For a dairy-free version, swap heavy cream for coconut milk and skip the cheese.
This recipe freezes well—perfect for weekly keto meal prep.
To thicken sauce, add ½ tsp xanthan gum at the end of cooking if needed.
