Keto Crockpot Creamy Tuscan Chicken

This creamy Tuscan chicken is a perfect low-carb crockpot recipe. Tender chicken thighs are slow-cooked in a rich, garlicky cream sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach for a keto-friendly dinner that’s as easy as it is flavorful.

  • Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes (low) or 2 hours 10 minutes (high)
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained, and chopped)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat a Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Lightly sear the chicken thighs for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from heat.
  2. Prepare the Cream Sauce: In the crockpot, whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add Chicken: Place the seared chicken thighs into the crockpot, ensuring they are submerged in the creamy mixture.
  4. Add Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Sprinkle the chopped sun-dried tomatoes over the chicken.
  5. Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  6. Add Spinach: In the last 30 minutes of cooking, stir in the fresh spinach leaves and let them wilt into the sauce.
  7. Serve: Serve the creamy Tuscan chicken over zucchini noodles, cauliflower rice, or steamed broccoli for a complete keto meal.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, let it simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes at the end.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes can be swapped for fresh cherry tomatoes for a lighter flavor.
