INGREDIENT NOTES:
PARMESAN CHEESE:
- It helps to make a thick sauce with a salty flavor. You can include the grana podano, or pecorino romano, instead.
ALMOND MILK:
- Almond milk is the foundation of the sauce and makes it creamy. You can also use the non-sweetened cashew milk or coconut milk.
SHIRATAKI FETTUCCINE:
- Shirataki fettuccine is used instead of regular pasta. We can use spaghetti squash, keto konjac pasta, or zucchini noodles as a replacement.
CHICKEN BREAST:
- Chicken breast is used to prepare this dish. Use the turkey breasts or chicken thighs instead.
KETO MARINARA:
- Keto marniara is utilized to give a regular Italian flavor. You can use homemade tomato puree with erythritol & Italian herbs.
HEAVY CREAM:
- Heavy cream makes a silky and creamy sauce. Utilize the mascarpone or coconut cream instead to create an indulgent texture.
