How to make this Keto BBQ Chicken Bake
We start by baking some chicken breasts in a bottle of Keto-friendly BBQ sauce, we usually opt for Primal Kitchen but you can use whatever brand you like or even make your own.
After baking the chicken in the BBQ sauce, we top the chicken with cheese, red onion, green bell pepper, pickled jalapeños, and cilantro. The result is a saucy, cheesy, flavor explosion that will quickly become a weekly menu staple.
