Keto Mustard Chicken with Rosemary

My new Keto Mustard Chicken recipe is one of those recipes where pictures don’t do the flavours justice. I love dijon mustard, and combined with the natural sweetness in rosemary and some seeded mustard as well, this dish is next level yum.

I like to serve this with cauliflower mash/puree – the creamy, buttery texture of a heavily blended cauli mash is the perfect accompaniment to soak up all the delicious butter mustard sauce. Here’s my recipe for the best cauliflower mash you’ll ever taste.

You could also serve this with steamed broccoli or broccolini tossed in butter for an even quicker meal.

Using chicken breasts is often touch and go, as they are naturally dryer than chicken thighs so you need to watch the cooking carefully. I always prefer to use a meat thermometer to pull them out when they are perfectly cooked, in this case just on 70 degrees C gives you tender and juicy chicken.

Keto Mustard Chicken with Rosemary

Using both dijon and seeded mustard blends perfectly with rosemary to create succulent chicken breast with a delicious sauce.
