Honey Dijon Low-Carb Chicken
This ultra flavorful Honey Dijon Chicken recipe was originally taken from our sister website, Living Well Spending Less, and has long been a family favorite (even for people who eat carbs!) Now that we’ve adapted it to be keto-friendly, low carb dinner by swapping in low-carb honey, it’s a great low carb dinner option that even your pickiest eaters will love.
Save on time during the week by preparing the chicken in the honey dijon marinade ahead of time, then freezing or refrigerating until needed. You can even double or triple the recipe to keep on hand!

- 1/4 large sweet onion
- 2 cloves garlic

STEP 3: Then pour into a 1-gallon freezer bag. (If freezing, be sure to label bag ahead of time.)
