How to make low carb baked enchilada chicken:

Ok let’s get started with how to make this easy keto chicken recipe!

First preheat oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Then spray a 9×13 baking dish with non stick spray (this will make clean up easier). Next place the chicken in the bottom of the pan.

Then season the chicken with the garlic salt and chili powder. Next pour the can of Green chili enchilada sauce over the chicken.

Then bake the chicken at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Finally top the chicken with the shredded jack cheeses and broil for a minute until cheese is melted.

Serve with your favorite sides including our Spanish rice or our homemade refried beans or black beans. Of course, only serve with these sides if you are not following a low carb or keto diet.
