When I was a kid, baked chicken with rice was a regular meal at our house. There were 5 of us kids and we were on a very tight budget, so chicken thighs or drumsticks with rice was not only easy – it was inexpensive. Even though the cauliflower is a bit more expensive than rice cup for cup – this low carb recipe still won’t break the bank.
Bring the rice to a low boil and add the chicken back in. Turn the burner down to low, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes. Then turn off the burner, remove from the heat, and let sit for 10 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Grab some fresh parsley from the garden and toss on top.
This Keto Chicken & Rice Soup is a low carb comfort food lover’s dream come true! Rich and flavorful, this healthy and delicious keto chicken soup is both creamy and slightly chewy from the veggies and “rice.”
This soup is super easy to make. Combine chicken broth, cooked chicken, ranch dressing mix, carrots, and celery. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and add cheddar cheese and cauliflower rice. Cook until the cheese has melted and the cauliflower is cooked. That’s it! Easy Peasy! I used rotisserie chicken for the cooked chicken in this soup.
