Low Carb Crockpot Chicken Broccoli Alfredo

Ingredients

  • 2 Lb Chicken Breasts
  • 1 C Heavy Cream
  • 1 C Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 1/2 C Chicken Broth
  • 12-16 oz Frozen Broccoli- depending on the size of the frozen bags in your store, 12 oz or 16 oz either one is fine
  • 2 T Minced Garlic
  • 1 t Onion Powder
  • 1 t Italian Seasoning
  • 1 t Salt
  • 1/2 t Black Pepper
  • 1/2 C Parmesan Cheese, plus more for topping
  • Xanthan Gum, optional
  • Dried Parsley and Red Pepper flakes for topping, optional

Instructions

  • Place chicken and broccoli in your crockpot. Mix together heavy cream, almond milk, chicken broth, garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Pour on top of the chicken and broccoli. Top with parmesan cheese.
  • Cook on low 4-5 hours or high for 2-3 hours. When finished, remove chicken and dice.
  • If using xanthan gum, remove the medium to big broccoli pieces. Cut them into bite size pieces. Add 1/4 tsp of xanthan gum at a time. I used 1/2 tsp total. Make sure you whisk for a few minutes before adding more.
  • When thickened, add the broccoli and chicken back to the crockpot and stir. Taste it and see if it needs more salt or flavor.
  • Serve over pasta of choice.
