Since I went on Keto, white sauce with corn flour has been banned from my life. So I decided to make my version of a creamy chicken stew kind of an au gratin. My Keto Chicken Stew is a welcome break from the usual Indian affair and is most filling and rich. And it has the perfect ratio of carbs, proteins and fats.

I made this stew on Sunday as I had all the time in the world to experiment and make something yummy and comforting. So I made a sauce out of coconut milk, cream, cheese and butter. This sauce is very rich and delicious. You can add your favorite herbs and spices to it. I kept it simple and warm this time. I made two servings at one time and had two very special meals. Try this recipe over the weekend and let me know if you like it. You can also bake a dish, cool it down put a cling wrap and have it during the week. It will stay good for three to five days in the fridge.

In fact looking at the ingredients I think it is high time Amul made me their Keto Ambassador. What say ?
