Creamy Keto Chicken Curry

Who says you can’t eat Indian food on keto?

It’s been a long time coming that I did a Keto chicken curry recipe for the channel. Most Indian curries do use a lot of tomato and onion and can be quite high on carbs but more or less they are still acceptable to eat as is. However it makes sense to amp up the regular Indian curry to make it a better keto food. So we’ve added some good fats via butter/ghee as well as almonds and heavy cream to finish with. The spice level of this curry can be adjusted to your palette but just adding a chopped green chilly (or three). It’s best served with cauliflower rice.

A base recipe for all future curries

The best part of this recipe is once you’ve made this a few times it’s pretty much the standard combination to make any curry at all. Most Indian curries have a base of onion, tomato and ginger garlic paste with the spices including cumin, red chilly powder, tumeric, garam masala powder and coriander powder. From this base you can give it a North Indian twist by adding dairy like cream or yoghurt or a more South Indian flavour by replacing the dairy with coconut milk. If chicken isn’t your meat of preference you can always try our egg curry recipe or maybe our Pork Vindaloo. Either way, just curry on!
