Doing Keto for Christmas is everything but boring! Instead of turkey classic, this year, we decided you make something simple, creamy, and nourishing. This Keto Chicken Mushroom stew is a simple dish, with high nutritional value. Garlic and parsley cut through the richness of the creamy sauce, making this dish a perfect comfort food. We suggest making a big bowl of mixed green salad on the side, for an ideal balance. It only takes 25 minutes to make, which leaves you more time for prepping up for your Christmas party!
