Keto Creamy Chicken Picante Recipe
This recipe is a family classic! If you are always stressed out about making dinner, this is an awesome, simple go-to dish. I suggest doing some prep work the night before. I make cauliflower rice and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for easy additions to meals such as this one.
I also recommend putting all the ingredients in the slow cooker insert the night before. In the morning, all you have to do is remember to take it out of the fridge and turn on the slow cooker. Dinner will be ready when you get home!
