Yes, this version is definitely keto friendly.
Is Chicken Parmesan fried?
Some people do prefer to put a batter crust on their chicken when making a Chicken Parmesan recipe. This recipe is specifically made low carb and keto friendly so we choose to not add a carb filled batter. It doesn’t really need it. It tastes amazing just like this!
Can you make Chicken Parmesan ahead of time?
Yes! But I would use fully cooked chicken. You can add all the ingredients to a freezer safe container and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. To cook it: Remove it from the freezer the night before to allow it to thaw overnight. Cover it with foil and cook as usual. If it is frozen in the center (not fully defrosted) then just cook it for about 10 minutes longer than you usually would.
