Notes

For an extra depth of flavor, consider roasting the chicken beforehand. Optionally mix in some diced bell peppers or jalapeños for a kick. If you want to experiment with textures, add in some cannellini beans (not keto). Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days; for long-term, freeze in portions.
