This Easy Keto Pepperoni Pizza Chicken Bake is perfect for those following the low-carb or Keto diet. This is a easy dinner recipe that the whole family will enjoy!
Following the keto diet has been fun and I have tried lots of new easy keto recipes. This one was a huge hit at my house so I had to share it. This easy keto recipe helps with those pizza and comfort food cravings.
A few notes on keeping this low carb and keto friendly:
For the Pepperoni, you can use any but I recommend you use regular for more fat.
My Mariana sauce came from Aldi and has 5 net carbs per serving. It is called Specially Selected Premium Marinara. You can use any sauce that you prefer just be sure to check the label and make sure it is low carb has minimal sugars!
This would work with chicken breasts as well. We used thighs because they are higher in fat.
Cheese can be any that you wish. We only had cheddar on hand. Mozzarella would be great too! We also topped it with Parmesan before eating.
