Chicken is galore in Keto and can be made in so many different ways. And surprisingly every time it tastes as good as before. So when on Keto you will by default keep looking for different recipes and ways to cook it. I have for you today an easy recipe to cook chicken. Butter Chicken needs very few ingredients and tastes delicious. It is cooked in butter and pepper as the main ingredients and is ready in very little time.

My Keto Butter Pepper Chicken will become your family’s favorite too and you will be asked again and again to cook it. Try this easy recipe this Sunday and make it even extra special by adding some Keto Buns to it. I have used roughly and freshly grinded peppercorns for this recipe. But if you have small kids at home, you can always replace that with freshly grinded pepper powder.
Keto Butter Pepper Chicken is sure to lift your spirit and leave a very special aftertaste in your mouth.
And mind you it has no ginger, garlic, onions, and tomatoes.

Hi priya, love you blog. I want to travel to India soon but I don’t know how difficult it will be to do Keto on the move. Obviously, I’d avoid rice in restaurants but do a lot of the curries and things contain hidden sugar? How do you personally eat out Keto style ? Thank you

All the kebabs, tikka, palak paneer, ceaser salad are safe to eat.
Avoid butter chicken, soups and anything which has a creamy base.
