Even better, your whole family will love it and no one will know it’s Keto (unless you tell them, of course).
Recipe adjustments and cooking tips
The Greek Lemon Chicken Soup recipe from Keto Slow Cooker is already incredibly easy to prepare, but here are a few tweaks and cooking tips to make it even easier and accommodate ingredients that may already be in your fridge or pantry.
- You can skip sautéing the onions, celery, and garlic before adding them to the slow cooker, but they really help deepen the flavor of the soup.
- You can chop raw chicken into bite-size pieces before adding it to the slow cooker. It will taste good, and you can save yourself from shredding the chicken after it’s cooked.
- Boneless chicken breasts can be used in place of the thighs, and you don’t even have to adjust the cooking time.
- You can use chicken thighs or bone-in chicken breasts, but the cooking time may be a little longer. Be sure to use an instant-read thermometer to make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F (75 C). If you are using boneless chicken, be sure to remove the bones and discard them before serving!
- You can use frozen cauliflower “rice” but be sure to thaw it before adding it to the slow cooker. Also, watch to make sure you don’t buy seasoned cauliflower “rice” because it will change the taste of the soup.
- The eggs are what give this soup its creamy texture, and it is really important to slowly pour the soup into the egg-lemon mixture while constantly stirring in step 6. Otherwise, the eggs may scramble, resulting in an egg-drop-like soup!
