Keto Jalapeño Popper Casserole
This Keto Jalapeño Popper Casserole is a hearty, low-carb delight featuring tender chicken, creamy cheese sauce, spicy jalapeños, and crispy bacon, all baked to golden perfection.
Equipment
- Casserole Dish
Ingredients
- 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 0.5 tablespoon garlic powder
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 5-6 jalapeño peppers seeded and diced
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Arrange the cubed chicken in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared casserole dish, leaving a little space between the pieces for even cooking.
- In a medium bowl, simply whisk together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, and garlic powder until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Pour this creamy sauce evenly over the chicken in the dish. Sprinkle the diced jalapeños over the sauce, then generously top with the shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked through and the cheese topping is bubbly and beautifully golden brown.
- Remove the casserole from the oven. Sprinkle the cooked and crumbled bacon over the top before serving warm.
