Chicken breast on keto diet is a perfect choice. There are so many keto chicken breast recipes you can make.

We use keto-friendly ingredients to flavor the chicken, including hot sauce and a blend of cheeses. Hot sauce is low in calories and carbs, which makes it an ideal way to flavor your food. 

It’s also low maintenance. There are no fancy sauces required for this recipe. Just add hot sauce! It couldn’t be simpler, which makes it a good option for a busy weeknight dinner. 

Cream cheese and sour cream are good sources of calcium and protein, which are both needed for bone health. Sour cream has the added benefit of providing healthy bacteria, which is needed for gut health.

Research shows that your gut bacteria plays an important role in the onset of human diseases (1). You can support a healthy digestive system by eating plenty of fiber and adding probiotics to your diet. If you’re not big on taking supplements, then sour cream is a good way to sneak some healthy bacteria in.

The best part about this recipe is that you get to use your instant pot! It locks flavor in and makes your meat juicier than oven-baked dishes, which sometimes cause your meat to dry out (especially lean cuts, like chicken or turkey breast). 

In our recipes, we use the Instant Pot 3-Quart Duo Mini 7-in-1. This model is ideal to cook for one to two people while the 6-quart and 8-quart models are intended for bigger families.
