Low Carb Chicken Pasta is what you need for this festive season. It’s warm, easy to make and guess what- it is ready in few minutes in a single pan.
What will you need to make Low Carb Chicken Pasta / low Carb Pasta –
1] Shirataki Noodles or Slim Pasta NoodlesÂ
I use this –Â
Penne or Sphagetti (People in India) ( See recipe notes section below)
Shirataki Noodles/ Zero Carb noodles (People outside India)
The Shirataki noodles are very low and almost zero in carbs but they are not available in India.  Indian Low-carb Alternative for pasta is the SLIM PASTA NOODLES/PENNE available on Bigbasket. They are not strictly keto but are good low-carb options if eaten in 2 portions. Remember to wash the noodles with some gentle flow of water to take away the smell of konjac.
2] Tomato Puree
I use this – Dabur Homemade Tomato puree
You can use the puree I used or make puree at home with 2 medium tomatoes.
3]Italian Seasoning
I use this – IItalian SeasoningÂ
4] OnionÂ
5] Parmesan cheese
6] Mozzarella cheese
7] Grilled / broiled shredded chicken
You can use either grilled / rotisserie or boiled shredded chicken. Chicken I used in the recipe was grilled but was a bit larger in size than I wanted. Make sure to use small sized shredded pieces.
8] Iron skillet –
I use this – 6 inch skillet or 10 inch skillet  (People In India)
Iron skillet is Best investment ever !!! You can use it to make almost anything – Be it pies, desserts, cakes, eggs, fry , sautee – You name it ! And it works on the stove, microwave as well as the oven.
