My guests can't get enough of this dish—it’s gone before I know it!

This low carb creamy angel chicken pasta is a delightful twist on a classic comfort dish. Originating from the heart of Italian-American cuisine, this recipe combines the rich flavors of creamy chicken with the lightness of angel hair pasta, all while keeping it low in carbs. It's perfect for those who want to enjoy a hearty meal without the guilt. This dish is a family favorite in our home, especially on busy weeknights when we crave something both quick and satisfying.

This dish pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad, dressed simply with olive oil and lemon juice. You might also consider serving it alongside some roasted vegetables, such as asparagus or zucchini, to keep the meal light and nutritious. A glass of sparkling water with a slice of lemon or lime adds a refreshing touch to the meal.

Servings: 4

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
8 ounces low carb angel hair pasta or shirataki noodles
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Season the chicken strips with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the heavy cream, chicken broth, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.

Stir the sauce until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet and simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the low carb pasta according to package instructions.

Toss the pasta with the creamy chicken sauce until well coated.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

For a little extra flavor, try adding some sun-dried tomatoes or spinach to the sauce. If you have picky eaters, you can substitute the chicken with shrimp or even tofu for a vegetarian option. To add a bit of spice, sprinkle some red pepper flakes over the dish before serving. For those who aren't watching carbs as closely, you can use regular angel hair pasta instead.
