    We love easy recipes over here at Cast Iron Keto, especially in the summer! This Strawberry Balsamic Tarragon Chicken is ready in just about 20 minutes and has only 3 ingredients if you don't count the pantry staples like oil and spices. How awesome is that?!

    Ingredients in Strawberry Balsamic Tarragon Chicken

    • chicken cutlets (or breasts sliced in half)
    • fresh strawberries
    • fresh tarragon
    • spices: sea salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and cinnamon
    • avocado oil (or any other healthy oil like coconut, lard, tallow, schmaltz, algae, or olive oil)
    • balsamic vinegar

    Super easy and straightforward!

    This meal doesn't contain a lot of fat on its own so you'll want to serve it up with a fatty side dish like our Keto Creamed Spinach or Keto Rolls. OR, if you're anything like us sometimes you're flush on fat and struggle to hit your protein goals. That's where meals like this come in! Low carb but higher fat and moderate protein helping you hit those macro goals no matter how many fat bombs you've inhaled during the day 😛
